At 8:05pm on Tuesday, June 17th, a four engine prop with very squared off wing tips past over me as it took off from Pearson International.
I seem to recall red trim on white but I won't swear by it.
As I've not seen a four engine prop since the Hamilton based Lancaster passed over my head while I strolled along Wellesley in downtown Toronto about two months ago, I'm extremely curious as to what this aircraft might have been.

Hi, I recall seeing something yesterday on flytecomm about an Antonov due in, maybe an AN-22, but I don't remember correctly.
As a side note, HMY flew in to Toronto today, anybody catch them? I guess they finally started their service, which was supposed to have started on May 5th.

Zantop had an Electra scheduled to fly Pearson to Willow Run yesterday at 7:30 EDT, my guess is that was it.
