The good ol days when Air Canada still had jumbos. The queen of the skies. Now all they have is twin engined planes. First they dumped the L-1011, then the 747, their two most magnificent birds. It's too bad that it has come to this. I used to love spotting at Pearson, but now there are no 747s, DC-10, L-1011, and no Terminal 1 parking garage to see them. I don't spot anymore. Nothing much to see and no vantage point to see it. The end of an era. The golden age has ended.

@TheGleeVids They replaced them with the 777's.

@myndenway It's just small-minded bureaucratic pettiness. No reason why they couldn't have set aside a couple of legitimate viewing areas. Heck, put parking meters or something and pay to get in--I would! But no such deal. Everything now is about the bottom line and liability. Common sense has rarely been as uncommon as it is in our times.

@TheGleeVids im guessing because of the fatal crashes that occurred with the 747s

@LakeNipissing You're more than welcome to come to Buffalo. Smaller airport and less hassle to go through. Except for those Fucking TSA gayboys that now have to feel you up making sure you're not working for Osama Bin BUSH or perhaps BARACK OSAMA.

WHY DOES AIR CANADA HAVE TO RETIRE THE JUMBOS OR THE 340's? They were my favorite in the fleet , do u agree?
-
@myndenway Those were days of varied designs and diversity. Now it's a lot of the same old.
I do have to say though, Air Canada's A340s, especially the elusive -500 series were pretty beautiful planes and made for a treat when spotting. Now we just have to beg Cathay, Air France, and Etihad to send them.
Why you called its classic?

@soccerockman Classic refers to Boeing 747-100 and -200 with the small upper deck and spiral stairway.
