Missing its engines, 501 is now a parts bird to support the remaining 3 (or 4?) flying CV-580s in the fleet. In behind is former Air X 737-500 9H-YES which wears a fake Canadian reg of C-GUNA. Sistership 9H-AHA (C-GUOE) was broken up last month. Also visible are a few United MAX 8s getting cabin fitting done at KF.

Most of the freighter Convairs and Boeings I've uploaded were only at CYWG in the middle of the night, when the apron was alive with activity and floodlights. The exception was when they broke down so were still there next morning for me to catch. The give-away is a service vehicle parked nearby. What I used to call The Konk-out Truck.
