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-10s. 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.
