Nice shot JTF, well captured. :)

Here's one from Bagotville of the USAF Air Combat Command F-16 Viper West Demonstration Team taking off into the sun.

Nice photos Attila!  :)

Sunday was exciting at YYZ with arrival of French Air Force A310 and a MiG-15 (privately owned) zipping in.  

Great Summer at Pearson with inaugural flight of Emirates A380, Emperor of Japan - Air Force One (and Two), inaugural flight of Turkish Airlines back on Saturday July 11th, etc.  I was thrilled to see that they used an A340!  

Have you seen the new CSA livery?  Very nice!
I'm not overly excited by the new Mexicana livery though.  It's .... ok.  

Jo-Anne  :D

Is this Caribbean Airlines the successor to BWIA?

The hummingbird appears to a broad-billed, which lives in Mexico, not the West Indies!

Pat - yes, CA is the company which took over BWIA.  They are based in Trinidad and Tobago.  As for the Hummingbird, I found this quote referencing it from just before the livery came into being:

Caribbean Airlines

A couple of wide angles from today, and a Turkish Airlines A330 thrown in for good measure.

Recently saw Frontier with Snowy Owl tail design arriving at YYZ.  Quite a pleasant surprise!  :D

Great shots Attila.  The Mustang and the Corsair are just stunning.

Looking forward to this weekend's show!  I will just about be living at YYZ for a few days.   :lol:
Last year, lucked out and met/talked with the Snowbirds pilots!  

Can't wait to see your photos!  :D

Hey Folks!
 

While your are on the subject, CNE Airshow.. I am pretty sure I spotted an F-18 on approach into Pearson runway 23  today at around 3:05 pm.

I used to be pretty good at spotting Aircraft.. Airbus 318.319.321 are my worst subject.

Napper))

Oh yeah, and Monday morning at 4:40 am the Space station did a flyby North East of Milton heading towards Toronto.  I Spotted it in an opening in the  broken clouds.
