Well a number of Little and Big Brothers from Scugog got to find out all about commercial airliners when they travelled to Toronto International Air- port on January 20th for a tour of the facilities. ~The - tour was -arranged through Air Canada and Mr. Norm Bridges of the airline, who conducted a complete tour of their facilities which included visiting the cockpit of an Air Canada L1011 jet- liner. * The Little Brothers were also shown how baggage is scanned for restricted weapons before they are put on board the airplanes, the - computer system that keeps track of all flights in Canada and how the jets are refueled by way of the underground fuel tanks. It was on the final leg of the tour that the Little Brothers and Big Brothers were taken aboard a jetliner and allowed to visit the cockpit and sit in the Cap- tain's seat. ~This trip was just one of a number that the Big Brot- hers Association of Scugog District has planned for the Little Brothers this year. Presently the Association is in desperate need of Big Brothers for the seven Little Brothers they have waiting for companionship.
