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.
