Skycraft Air Transport was created as a charter airline based in Oshawa/ON targeting the express air freight needs of the North American automotive industry. By the late 1980s the airline was operating a flying school and had diversified into the air ambulance, passenger charter and scheduled service markets. Its fleet ranged from the Cessna 150 and 172 through the Cessna 402, Piper Cheyenne and Beech 18 to the Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante, Shorts 330 and DC-3. Its scheduled services included flights from Oshawa Municipal Airport to Ottawa; Montreal; Windsor, Ontario; and Detroit. The airline was notable for changing the type of aircraft operated on its passenger services to match the number of passengers booked for each flight.Skycraft's full colour scheme consisted of having the lower part of the fuselage painted in white or silver, the middle part painted with the red title of 'Skycraft', and the tail painted in white or silver, with a large letter 'S' in red and the Canadian flag, but many aircraft were operated in hybrid colour schemes..Skycraft filed for court protection in 1992. It subsequently obtained new financing and continued operations with a reduced fleet, but the new business plan was not successful. The airline finally shut down operations in February 1994.

C-FICW - Fokker F-100 - Intair

at Toronto Lester B. Pearson Airport (YYZ) in July 1991

Intair had a very short life. Its original ancestor was Québecair who was owned by the government of Québec. It was mainly a regional airline except for a few flights in Florida and Europe. In 1985, Québecair was privatized, becoming Inter-Canadien, a Canadian Airlines connector. However, the rag began to burn very quickly betwwen Inter-Canadien and Canadian Airlines. Canadian Airlines level of service in Montréal and the remaining of Québec was (and remained until Canadian Airlines end ) very poor. With that & other various commercial conflicts, a split of Inter-Canadien from Canadian Airlines occured in 1989. This new split up airline was named Intair. They were covering roughly the north-east of North America. Intair operated passenger service between Toronto and Montreal as well as charter flights such as Orlando and Ft.Lauderdale. Intair had a fleet of 7 F-100's and 5 ATR-42's. Intair went out of business in August 1991 and resurrected as InterCanadien (1991) Ltd and then failed again in 1999
