[edit] Toronto/Winnipeg on a Q400???

Can anyone provide information on whether Porter confirms they're looking to fly to Winnipeg? That doesn't make much sense. The Q400 speed/runway disadvantage disappears over 500 miles, and Winnipeg is 950 miles from TO. Even if they were looking to just go to Winnipeg from Thunder Bay, is there enough business? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Greg Salter (talk • contribs) 20:05:02, August 19, 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Regional Airline of Canada or Ontario

The last edit changed Porter from being a regional airline of Canada to being a Regional Airline of Ontario. I think we should use the "Canada" group or add Porter to the regional group for "Quebec" and "Nova Scotia". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by M@sk (talk • contribs) 21:36:14, August 19, 2007 (UTC).

I made the change because Porter is based in Ontario, as I based it on other regional airlines' categories. It isn't (yet) national like the other carriers. Interestingly, Jazz is a "regional airline" that operates nationally. Greg Salter 03:57, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:PorterAirlinesLogo.JPG

Image:PorterAirlinesLogo.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
