Why F-BNLD had no titles when it arrived on the regular Friday service from Paris to Tahiti is not known. UTA's DC-8 were frequently leased, usually to Air Afrique but the French military as well. It had been several months since it had come off lease to the African carrier when was seen at Sydney. In 1972 it was sold to the French air force.

The mid-80s were turbulent years for airlines, especially in Canada. Quebecair replaced it's BAC 111s with 737s for domestic flights and leased two DC-8-63s for trans-Atlantic charters. The charters only lasted a few years and this DC-8 went to Nationair at the end of 1985. Unfortunately, the Quebecair name also passed into history by the end of 1986.

Air New Zealand leased N8035U for three months from November 1967 to cover the busy Christmas period. Internet claims the aircraft was leased from November 1964 to January 1968 are incorrect but can be found repeated on all online aircraft production lists. Printed production lists from 40 years ago confirm my recollections.

Air New Zealand leased N8035U for three months from November 1967 to cover the busy Christmas period. Internet claims the aircraft was leased from November 1964 to January 1968 are incorrect but can be found repeated on all online aircraft production lists. Printed production lists from 40 years ago confirm my recollections.

Delivered to Canadian Pacific January 17, 1968, the "Empress of Tokyo" really stands out in the snowscape. CP Air sold the aircraft to Worldways Canada in 1983 and was flown until they ceased flying in 1990. Aerolease Financial bought it in 1991 and converted the stretch eight to a freighter. Air Transport International operated the aircraft for Burlington Air Express in BAX colors and ATI colors until put into storage at Marana, Arizona in 2003.
