Canadian airline pioneer Max Ward passed away on November 2, 2020 at the age of 98. I wish I had something better as a "flown west" tribute, but this photo of Wardair's first 707 on a grey day in Toronto was all I had ready. With the airline's operation center across the street in the background, Wardair was Canada's premier charter airline.

Departing TPA on a hazy day.

Wardair entered the jet age with Canada's first Boeing 727 in 1966. The 727 was a little short on range to operate Wardair's trans-Atlantic charters profitably and they ordered this 707 to expand and make money on the routes. "C. H. "Punch" Dickens" was delivered April 17, 1968 and was joined later by another 707 (CF-ZYP) from a cancelled Quebecair order. C-FFAN was sold in 1978 with the aircraft ending it's days in Miami, broken up there in 1996.

Delivered from McDonnell Douglas December 1978 and operated until sold during the amalgamation with Canadian Airlines in 1989. To the GPA Group and later Aero USA for lease to Garuda and Lineas Aereas Paraguayas respectively. Converted to a freighter in 1997 for DAS Air Cargo and finally broken up June 2006.
