    Welcome to my fleet histories series. In it I review year-by-year aircraft fleets of an airline.
    In this video I go through the the history of Air Canada's Boeing 747 fleet from 1971 until it was retired in 2004.
    This series is inspired by Elmauriplatense. You can check out his channel here: / elmauriplatense

    What should my next fleet history be? Put your ideas in the comments!

      NXG Roberto it’s True, The new one is like a Reboot of the 1965-1994 Livery (the 1965 livery was modified till 1994)

    I flew Air Canada B747 Frankfurt to Toronto on 21/9/1998. It was a fantastic experience. Majority of the passengers were emigrants to Canada from former Yugoslavia.

    My first flight ever, was on an AC 747 in 1972! It would have been a relatively new aircraft at that time. Fell in love with the 747 and think they are the best aircraft of the modern era. I liked the original livery the best, as well!

      Like my BEA/BA 1-11 history, no aircraft were painted in the new livery, and it was released only a few months before retirement.

    Air Canada 747s are the coolest airplanes they've ever flown, what's really sad is that after September 11 Air Canada was forced to retire the 747-400s early. People wished the 747-400s continued flying until retirement probably into the early 2010s.
