Just got home from a truly spectacular afternoon and evening at YYZ - VERY active Rwy 24r including a major surprise arrival by Emirates B777-300ER.  Wow!


Interesting, Bird Brain. I checked all Arrivals via Flightaware and could not find it. When Brian Dunn updates the logs tonight it will probably be in there.

Cool.   8)

What do you think about the Jet Blue f/a freaking out on pax the other day, grabbing beer then going down the emergency chute?   :lol:

I can't wait to see Hainan Airlines A346 coming into YYZ - hopefully soon!!!  It was initially listed on the GTAA Arrivals list for August 7th but was then listed as Cancelled.  I think they are still waiting for some sort of approval.  Gorgeous a/c and livery!  

Jo-Anne  :)

Nice


Nicer!


Wow! I was shocked when I first saw JAL8813 on Radar and even better I noticed that its flight path was to go right over Grimsby. I wish I could have gotten better, clearer pictures but these were from my bedroom window and they were pretty far away.

The first plane was a regular scheduled Korean Airlines Cargo Flight 285 from KIAM (Miami) to YYZ (Toronto)
The second plane was Japan Airlines Flight 8813 en-route to YYZ from MTPP (Port-au-Prince, Haiti) at 5:30PM this evening as a Relief flight.

I also went in the cockpit of a USAF C-130J.

Thanks to the RCAF, USAF, and BAF for bringing their aircraft to the show. Espically thanks to the Crews on the C-17 and C-130J for allowing me in the cockpits and to the Snowbirds and Brazil Smoke Squadron for autographs.
