On September 3rd, one of Air Canada Cargo's Boeing 767 Freighters flew into Calgary for the first time ever! Although definitely not the first visit here for this particular airplane since it previously flew for Canadian, Air Canada and later, Rouge, it is the first time one of their converted 767s has been here.

Back at the end of 2020, Air Canada announced that they'd convert a couple of their retired 767s to freighters given the demand for air cargo at the time. Since then, they're now up to 6 operating 767 Freighters, including two brand new ones! By extension, this is also the first time one of their 767s in the new livery has been here, which, I have to say, looks so sharp!

This one was here bringing show jumping horses for the annual Spruce Meadows Masters event that takes place just south of Calgary. It arrived from Toronto on Sunday afternoon and then left about 3 hours later heading back there.

It's worth mentioning that one of the 767s with winglets showed up the next day but unfortunately in darkness. Hopefully these won't be the only times we get to see these planes! Enjoy the video!
