Flight Squad (partially found English dub of Canadian animated TV series; 2000)
Flight Squad is a 2000 French/Canadian, action-adventure, animated, television series that ran for a single season and 26 episodes. In French (or Canadian-French), the show is known by the title of Air Academy and aired on M6. The English dub premiered on March 6 2000, whereas the French dub premiered on April 5 2000, then ended on July 2 that same year for the latter. The production was a collaboration amongst what was then known as CINAR Corporation (now DHX Media), Antefilms Productions, and Neurones Animation. CINAR also distributed the series. In Canada, it aired on both the French and English versions of Teletoon. While all the episodes were shown on the French Teletoon, for some reason, 15 of the episodes were aired on the English Teletoon channel but 11 others weren't. Also, for some reason, another site has the order of episodes different from the order in which they aired. That might be due to the production order being different from the air date order. The listing below shows the order of episodes by air date if that's applicable at all for the English version. "Parachute to the Rescue" is the true, last episode overall, but the last episode to air on the English Teletoon was "Ice!".
Plot
This follows a small group of mostly aspiring aviators-in-training at a flight school in Canada. They include Dan, a former fighter pilot and Canadian secret service member; Tina, his assistant; Jeff, a high school-aged student; his little sister, Emma and Alex, both of whom are the younger students; Max, a mechanic; and Parachute, a flying squirrel who is the team's pet and mascot. Aside from that, they also help others in need however they can, take on mercenaries, and carry out their duties of making sure parcels get delivered.
