From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.

Photograph of the air travellers in and out of the Terrace-Kitimat's airport these days are noting the progress being made on the terminal building near the existing building. Improved facilities for local air passengers were approved some months ago by the federal government after long years of complaints by Kitimat and Terrace organizations. At far left may be seen the control tower.
