JRA320 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Everytime I see the BA 787, it reminds me of how they keep on trying to request 35L for takeoff and get told to use 35R instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRA320 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 I still wish that UA would run a 757 between YYC and IAH like we'd to for a while. It would definitely beat a 739ER or 738. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Bus Fan Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 Calgary airport could be renamed after Harper if this petition is listen to: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/renaming-calgary-airport-duelling-petitions-1.3291241 Hopefully this does not happen because he is not worth of getting a airport named after him in my opinion.

Nick B Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Today is the official opening day of the new International Terminal. Unfortunately I didn't have time to explore it too much today but I was amazed at the size and architecture of it, especially in comparison with the existing terminal. Definitely looking forward to flying out of here some day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatcoinz Posted March 24, 2018 Report Share Posted March 24, 2018 Cathay Pacific Cargo has ended operations at YYC. The operations ended due to the route being non-profitable. Here is the last Cathay 747 to leave YYC at 0420 this morning. Registration, B-LJL as flight CX95. The tower said "Hope to see you again" before departing Runway 17R for Anchorage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
