N207UA (cn 30213/232) Where does one find a Royal Brunei 772 on any given day? Try Montreal's forgotten second airport, Mirabel. The white elephant sits far from anywhere and even then it is surrounded by forest, making photography difficult. Note former Royal Air Maroc 732 CN-RMN, now registered C-GNLN, is stationed beside the triple 7. |

N8957E (cn 47215/313) This aircraft will turn 40 years old next month. In 1994/95, many Eastern and Midway Airlines DC-9s could be seen at Dorval while Air Canada performed D-checks for Northwest. Many of them are still flying today but NW has finally announced that all good things must come to an end; they will start phasing out the DC-9s this year. |

C-GEOU / 648 (cn 30108/771) After completing AC 400 this morning YYZ-YUL, this workhorse gets pulled out of service to undergo project XM - extreme makeover. Fin 648 will return in just over a month completely refurbished. This is one of the last Air Canada planes with the old livery (1993-2008). |

C-GAUB / 601 (cn 22517/16) Ship 601 is rarely moved these days, only when spare parts are needed. Part of the tail is missing and well as pieces of the #1 engine. As the plane is no longer able to fly it will likely be broken up here at the airport. |

C-GAUN / 604 (cn 22520/47) A rare and possibly final lineup of these classics together. On the left is AC's first 767, C-GAUB fin 601 (due to be broken up shortly). In the middle is Canadian's first 767 C-FCAB, fin 681. This plane is now in the hangar devoid of tail colours and is being refurbished. On the right is the famous Gimli Glider, seen in its final days of operation. |

C-FITW / 733 (cn 35298/638) As good as it gets! Air France and Air Canada are currently using 77Ws on YUL-CDG making Montreal a haven for spotting the impressive jumbo. AF345 awaits AC 420 YYZ-YUL which will then turn to AC870 YUL-CDG. This action was taking place on runway 24R on a fine late summer evening. |

N929L / 6229 (cn 47174/286) I always liked the black-nosed aircraft, 2 of which are seen here. This classic american scene shows two models that competed heavily against each other for decades but now their useful life is coming to an end. Scanned from our 4x6 print series. |

C-FIUA / 701 (cn 35239/640) Spectacular interior of the new AC 77L. The plane arrived yesterday night ac AC7077 SEA-YUL ferry flight. It will be deployed in 5 days on YYZ-LHR and then switch to YYZ-HKG. Note especially the sleek curves of the overhead bins. Well done! |

C-FCAE / 682 (cn 24083/215) What happened here? Fin 682 in for maintenance is seen in less than standard livery. This particular aircraft is a former Canadian Airlines jet, denoted by the registration containing CA which remains today. |
