- Scope and Content
- One black-and-white photograph featuring Irving Thomas, on May 1, 1986.
- W9 B7 457 was published in the West Lorne Sun on May 1, 1986, with the caption: "Weeks ago, when Irving Thomas learned one of Trans-Canada Airways' orginal 10 passenger planes - an Elctra 10-A - would be landing in London, enroute to Expo '86, to celebrate the airlines' 50th annniversary, he could hardly wait to see the plane and crew. Being one of the first five men hired by C.D. Howe to organize the airline from a Winnipeg office, which had no furniture when Mr. Thomas arrived in 1937, he saw Air Canada through much of its expansion, he had 15 years of reminiscing to do."
