Just arrived at the Air Canada maintenance hangar for conversion from combi to all freighter. In September it emerged in the UPS livery. The huge hangar was built to house Lockheed Tristars and was politically motivated to keep the locals happy. In practice, Boeing 727 and Airbus maintenance was carried out instead. Also much third-party airline work was done which brought in some interesting visitors like this DC-8. Sadly, Air Canada eventually pulled the plug and when I was there in 2012 it was a truck freight terminus with no aviation connection.
