Paeifie Western Airlines (PWA) brought a contingent of 10 representatives to their first Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce meeting Tuesday. The airline will be offering flights from Terrace to Smithera to Vancouver. Beginning Sunday PWA will be flying Boeing 737 jets into the Terrace airport and will be com- peting with Canadian Pacific Air (CP Air) for passengers. CP Air was previously the only airline to offer jet service in Terrace. Graham Mann, PWA representative in charge of sales and services, was the main speaker at the Chamber of Commerce dinner. Mann discussed PWA's new image, which is focused on growth and expansion and illustrated by the company’s new colors and paint job on their jets. Terrace will play a part in PWA's growth because it is a city with potential and should easily be able to support two major, air carriers, he said. PWA was originally going to come to Terrace in February but was held up by lack of facilities and by an unforecasted demand for equipment on other routes, said Mann. Mann is unhappy that Transport Canada will not expand the existing facilities al the airport for PWA. The federal government owns the airport and does not foresee any additions for another five years, said Mann, “Tf you want it, build it,” was Transport” Canada’s reply to PWA's request for .in- creased facilities, said Mann, | PWA hopes to have its own terminal at the airport in the future, said Mann. Until that time PWA has made an arrangement with CP Air to share their facilities. George Clark, the manager of New Quadra Travel, estimated that approximately 150 . passengers per day fly out of Terrace and are charged about $13 each in federal tax. Clark ° turther estimated the federal government receives approximately $700,000 per year in tax from the Terrace airport. This tax money goes into the federal government's general revenue fund, said Clark. He suggested that Terrdce is sub- sidizing Transport Canada. Tom Laurie, of CP Alr, takes a different position. His company is currently un- dergolng renovations and expansions at the Terrace airport and [follows the belief that whoever uses the airport should pay the total cost of operation. Air carriers are charged for using the airport and passengers are charged a tran- sportation tax. The new PWA ticket office is on 4693 Park Ave., sald Mann.
