CP Air replaced an early order for five Boeing 767-200s with 737-300s. The aircraft were delivered in three different color schemes; one in CP Air orange, two in "Attache" colors for full business class service and two in the pictured new Canadian Pacific colors. The type was in service for a year, with C-FCPL sold to Guinness Peat Aviation and delivered to VASP on lease in December 1986 as PP-SNU. After later leases to Markair and Frontier Airlines, it ended up with KDAvia (EI-CHH) by 2005. The airliner was impounded in Paris September 4, 2009, stored at Lasham and broken up there in 2012

Testimonial to the ruggedness of the Cessna structure, this model 180 took off from the Winnipeg River full of freight at max gross then stalled over land. The pilot suffered only minor injuries, protected by the two heavy spar frames and the float bows which look like they absorbed a lot of the impact.
