Max Ward took his airline from the northern Canadian bush to a world class charter airline. Pictured departing for somewhere warm and sunny, C-FZYP (1969 - 78) was replaced when the airline upgraded to Boeing 747s. To Montana Austria as OE-IDA, after leases to Sudan Airways and Nigerian Airways, it was seized by the US government for drug smuggling. Converted to a C-137, it entered the US Air Force as 85-6973. Converted to an E-8C JSTARS in 2001 it was re-serialed 00-2000 when returned to service. This photo is copyright © Gary Vincent, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
