Chrono Aviation Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary Chrono Jet Inc., is a charter airline headquartered at Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport. It operates aircraft in passenger (9 to 120), cargo and combi roles. It has bases at MET – Montreal Metropolitan Airport (formerly Montréal Saint-Hubert Longueuil Airport), Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport and Rimouski Aerodrome. It has over 265 employees.[8] As of 18 October 2024, it was announced that Chrono Group, the owners of Chrono Aviation, had been placed in receivership. This was ordered by the Superior Court of Quebec under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act as Chrono was unable to pay their creditors.[9]

History

Chrono Aviation was founded in 2012 by Vincent Gagnon and Dany Gagnon with a single Pilatus PC-12 and two pilots.[10] Later in that same year, the company purchased its second aircraft.[11]

In 2014, the company acquired their first Beechcraft 1900D.

In 2016 they obtained the authority to conduct Canadian Aviation Regulations Part 705 operations with more than 37 passengers allowing for the operation of their first Dash 8-100 in 2017. The airline immediately upgraded the Dash 8 with brand new avionics worth $1.5 million and the cockpit was also upgraded with 3-D terrain vision.[11]

In 2018, the company unveiled its first Boeing 737-200 airliner with a second following shortly thereafter.[12] These aircraft can carry passengers or various combinations of passengers and cargo, and are able to operate to and from unpaved runway gravel strips.[13]

The company briefly operated a Dassault Falcon 50EX from 2017 to 2020 and a Citation CJ4 from 2019 to 2020.

In 2019, Chrono Aviation and Arctic Co-operatives Limited (ACL) Announced the awarding of a contract from Baffinland Iron Mines Corp for the provision of air transport services to the Mary River Mine.[14] Chrono Aviation was to fly three to five flights a week from their base at MET – Montreal Metropolitan Airport.[15]

In October 2019, the company announced the groundbreaking of their 6,100 m2 (66,000 sq ft) hangar project being constructed at the MET – Montreal Metropolitan Airport which the ACL contract supported.[16][14] that same year, the airline also outfitted their aircraft with SKYTRAC's ISAT-200A SATCOM terminals for real-time flight following, voice communications, and weather tracking capabilities. Operating on the Iridium Communications network, this system allows the airline to track every flight, send weather data, and remain in direct communication with the flight crew.[17]

In 2020, Chrono Aviation was ranked 213 out of 400 of the fastest growing companies in Canada based on a report published by The Globe and Mail.[18] In 2021, Chrono Aviation was again recognized and ranked 167 out of 400 of the fastest growing companies in Canada.[19]

Chrono Aviation had previously announced that it had added a Boeing 737-800, formerly belonging to Air Transat to its fleet.[20] However, on July 6, 2021, the aircraft was deregistered by Chrono Jet.[21] On December 7, 2021, Chrono Aviation announced that it would commence exclusive dedicated cargo operations utilizing a Boeing 737-800SF starting January 2022. Chrono will be first operator of the type in Canada.[22] In the fall of 2021, the airline also began to use its new state of the art 6,100 m2 (66,000 sq ft) hangar.
