Photo Comment

Pictured as Wardair was undergoing a huge expansion, this A310 (one of 14 on order) had been delivered on January 21, 1988. It proved over optimistic and the financial stress saw Canadian Airlines buy Wardair in 1989. The last two A310s, twelve MD-80 and twelve Fokker 100 orders were cancelled. C-FSWD was last with the French Air Force as F-RADC from January 2001. The aircraft was withdrawn from service in November 2021 and ferried to Tarbes-Lourdes-Pyrénées Airport before the end of the month for scrapping.
