Canadian Pacific was in the middle of changing its identity to CP Air when this photo was taken of CF-CPS in its original livery. Luckily, taxiway works meant a circuitous trip from the terminal to the Qantas Jet Base, bringing Empress of Madrid within range of a 55mm lens.

CF-CPQ and TAA Boeing 727 VH-TJA collided at Sydney airport on the night of January 29, 1971. There were 240 people on the two aircraft. The report found the CP Air crew had backtracked instead of exiting while the crew of the 727 was criticised for failing to see the DC-8 when they had time to stop and not adopting a steeper climb-out when they did. The controller was largely exonerated because from his position at night it was difficult to see if the DC-8 was on the runway or the taxiway. The 727 safely landed despite losing hydraulics from a large hole in the belly. No injuries.

At the time, this DC-8-62 "combi" was preserved at the Naval Air Museum Barbers Point near the southwestern corner of Oahu. In this configuration, the aircraft has a large cargo section up front and a smaller passenger compartment with six rows of seats in back. Sadly, the museum closed in 2020.

9XR-SC taxiing to Amsterdam's S-apron. This life-size image of a Silverback gorilla makes clear where this cargo carrier from Rwanda got its name from.

From December 2011 until June 2012, the DHL DC-8 was a regular sight at SFO, but all DHL-painted DC-8s were abruptly retired when Astar Air Cargo ceased operations on June 2nd, 2012. Seen here arriving in the morning from LAX.

More than 20 years in service with United, but still going strong! United had their Eights re-engined during the early 1980s, and continued to operate them well into the 1990s. Most were later sold to various operators and converted to freighter. That included N8081U, which became SE-DLM with Time Air Sweden in 1992, and N827BX with Burlington Air Express in 1993. It was sold for scrap in 2004.

Great to see a Stretch-8 blasting out of SJC, well worth the trip down Highway 101. Formerly N8073U with United Airlines.
