After the failure of Worldways in late 1990 the aircraft went on to serve with Flagship Express and ATI/Burlington Express as N783AL, and as N819AX with Airborne Express/ABX Air. In 2009 it went to Meridian Airways in Ghana as 9G-AXD, and was broken up at Kotoka International Airport, Accra, in January 2015.

Had been in service since January of the year and ended its days broken up as 9G-AXD in 2015. This was an era before people started blowing up airliners to make a political statement, when someone could hop in a Cessna and pick up at the terminal (as here) without hassles from security - not that there was any.

This former CP Air DC-8 was with Worldways Canada from May 1983 - December 1990.

CF-CPP lines up for a 07 departure wearing Skybus/Aerobus titles. Skybus was a low-cost fare introduced by CP Air on its domestic trunk routes following the first steps towards deregulating air transport in Canada.

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.
