Millardair Ltd. was a Canadian airline that operated from 1963 until 1990 and from the 1990s to 2012 was an aircraft maintenance and servicing firm Millard Air Incorporated (Millardair MRO).〔http://www.ruudleeuw.com/dc4_std.htm〕 Formerly based in Mississauga, Ontario, Millard Air moved their operations to Breslau, Ontario in 2012 and ceased MRO activities after Wayne Millard's death in December 2012. ==Company history== Millardair was founded in 1963 by legendary aviator, Carl Millard 〔https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.obituaries/UfL-ykEUcWQ〕(1913–2006) and was based in Toronto, Canada. Operations began using the Douglas DC-3. The main business was flying automotive parts and other cargo.〔http://www.airpixbycaz.co.uk/cazsite/aviation/airlines/calp02/calp201.html〕 In 1970 the DC-3s were used to fly passengers on third-level services, and in 1972 the four-engine Douglas DC-4 joined the company's fleet. Some of the DC-3s were exchanged for Douglas C-117 Super Dakota, and operations continued until finding slots at Toronto airport became difficult and operations ceased due to bankruptcy on 31 May 1990. While no longer a flying operator, previously flown aircraft were stored at Pearson Airport along with other aircraft acquired.〔http://www.ruudleeuw.com/dc4_std.htm〕 Carl Millard died in 2006 and son Wayne Millard took over as President〔http://www.wingsmagazine.com/content/view/544/67/〕 In 2012, after the company's lease expired at Toronto Pearson Airport, the company moved to Waterloo International Airport where it undertook massive new hangar construction. After Wayne Millard's death 〔http://www.wingsmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=6795&Itemid=146〕 the role of CEO was taken up firstly, by his son, Dellen and subsequently by Wayne Millard's ex-wife Madeline Burns. The MillardAir MRO license was voluntarily cancelled in February 2013. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Millardair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
