The story

In 1955, Winnipeg Airport is one of the main bases of Trans-Canada Air Lines, housing the airline's largest maintenance centre. One of the main functions of the base is to overhaul piston and jet engines in an engine shop as part of a complex system of operational and maintenance routines that underline the safe operation of each TCA aircraft. The TCA Canadair North Star airliner has its Rolls-Royce Merlin piston engines overhauled in Winnipeg on a regular schedule.
