Air Dale operated two Dash 8s and several Twin Otters for NorOntair, a subsidiary of the Ontario Northland Transportation Commission of the Ontario Provincial government. The first airline to operate the Dash 8, Air Dale took delivery of this second aircraft on November 25, 1985. NorOntair shutdown on March 29, 1996 after the government withdrew subsidies needed to maintain operations in Northern Ontario. The aircraft went to Milne Bay Air as P2-MCH in December 1996. Re-named Airlines of Papua New Guinea in 2001 and PNG Air in 2015, this Dash 8 is still current at the time of uploading.
