Boeing 767-300 - Air Canada
Air Canada started flying in 1937 as Trans-Canada Air Lines. In 1964 TCA changed its name to 'Air Canada' and in January 2000 it swallowed its rival Canadian Airlines. In 2003 the airline filed for bankruptcy protection, but emerged from bankruptcy one-and-a-half year later.
Today the airline flies a large fleet including several widebody types. The 747 is gone, but the Airbus A330 and A340 and the Boeing 767 are part of the fleet and the airline has ordered the 777 and 787.
Anno 2006 Air Canada operates 13 767-200s and 30 767-300ER aircraft. The 767-300 on the picture above is landing at Zürich Kloten Airport. The aircraft in an older livery on the photo below, a 767-200, is approaching London Heathrow.
