CF-FPI was delivered to Canadian Pacific in May 1961.

Canadian Pacific flew to Sydney only once a fortnight (two weeks) at the time the photo was taken. DC-8s had not long replaced Britannias on the route, the switch coming with the opening of the new Mangere Airport at Auckland, New Zealand in November 1965.

Old slide of somewhat disappointing quality, but interesting nevertheless. CP Air was a very frequent visitor at Amsterdam for many years. In 1981 they still operated their DC-8s into Schiphol, but they would soon change that to their similarly coloured DC-10's. CF-CPP "Empress of Alberta" is seen here in their striking orange colour scheme, shortly after touchdown on runway 19R.

C-FCRD promotes Expo 86, which was still two years away.

Starting her take-off roll in the classic orange CP colours, this DC-10 bought new in 11.79 went to Bangladesh Biman on lease in 11.90 as S2-ADN but was w/o at Chittagong on 1.7.05 after running off the runway in rain

C-FCPO gets airborne from runway 16 not long before the DC-8s were replaced by DC-10s on the route.

The 2m timber fence with plastic mesh in the foreground was the boundary fence in the early 1980s.
