The Canadian Armed Forces operated a fleet of five Boeing 707 transports (code named CC-137s) from 1970 through 1997. These reliable aircraft provided the Canadian military with a truly global deployment capability, with air-to-air refueling, humanitarian, and troop and cargo transport capabilities.

The footage on this DVD was filmed using state-of-the-art TV broadcast betacams. This two-part visual documentary takes the viewer for an up-close visit exploring all aspects of the operation. On this DVD, a period CAF promo film explains the workings of a trans-Atlantic CF-5 refueling flight across the pond. We then fly from Kai Tak to YVR on a Vietnamese refugee flight in 1979.

Then we join troops boarding their CC-137 at Quebec City for their flight to Andoya for military exercises, along with a tanker CC-137 escorting CF-5s across the pond. Theres ample footage of all the action at Andoya airfield with lots of noisy & smoky 707 footage.

The CC-137s were based at CFB Trenton where we then soak up some winter cold weather operations. Finally, we join a sked-run military passenger flight between Ottawa and CFB Trenton.

  • Like a boss! xxD

  • 747?

  • fuck noise pollution laws, bring back the 707!

  • nearest I'll ever get to one of these is the landing gear leg at my college

  • @diapermanful both wonderful aircraft, but nostalgia makes me prefer the l1011 too

  • I lived under the approach at MKE. I have a picture from 1969 of me standing on the front lawn holding my ears.

  • @frotttiop i have to disagree, i absolutely love the CFM-56's we have on the KC-135 now...nearly double the thrust really allows the plane to shine when it come to the capability of that airframe...lightweight that baby is a complete rocket...the old e-models weren't half as capable

  • 707 THE BEST AIRLINER EVER MADE,AND THOSE MACHINES STILL WORKING, AMAZING .IMPRESIONANTE AVION..

  • I love the 707s!..So pretty

  • Well my left ear enjoyed that.
