Kenting Atlas Aviation

♦ Atlas Aviation (i) was renamed from McGuire Aviation School (formed in 1946), Ottawa, Ontario after founder Hugh McGuire passed away after a short illness. It was renamed at the end of 1946/early 1947 to Kenting Aviation, with Angus Morrison as its new president. Weldy Phipps was a later partner in that venture but left around 1948. As Atlas (i) had folded around 1951, the name was re-used, with permission from Angus Morrison by Weldy Phipps, when he formed Atlas Aviation (ii) in 1962. Atlas Aviation (ii) was acquired by Kenting Aviation and renamed to Kenting Atlas Aviation. In 1975 Kenn Borek acquired Kenting Atlas Aviation ♦
