Photo Comment

At the crack of dawn once, one of these picked me up at CYWG and I rode in the jump seat to CYYC and worked all day while the crew slept. That evening they brought me home again. These Falcons have a drogue chute in the tail-cone which is armed before each take-off in case of an abort. This one was delivered as N4363F in 1969 via Pan American World Airways who were the US distributor back then. In 1972 it joined the RCAF as 117508 and was later transferred to Canada Department of Energy Mines and Resources. It served with Knighthawk as a package carrier from 1994 to 2006 then became N5096F until withdrawn in August 2011.
