I think that this may be a hoax as the article was created by GraemeHerbert (talk · contribs), the same person as the CEO and founder. Also the article was created in 2009 but indicates that the airline was founded in 2005. I don't believe that almost four years later the airline was not in operation. These two versions of his user page are interesting. I was unable to find anything in Google, not always a good indication but useful, and the given external link, http://www.jetcanada.ca/, did not work when I tried it. At best it seems to be a nonexistent airline or failed attempt. Either way it should be deleted. something lame from CBW 12:51, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not a real airline, certainly. Perhaps an imaginary one rather than a malicious hoax, though. I can find no evidence that it was even a failed attempt. The domain jetcanada.ca is registered to a software company in Aurora, Ontario, and jetcanadainc.ca to someone in Australia. At one point, the creator blanked the page. See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:GraemeHerbert&oldid=279671622 and http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:GraemeHerbert&oldid=259093070 for other imaginary airlines created by the same editor. – Eastmain (talk • contribs) 13:08, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
