TURN ON WORD WRAP
Welcome to my Air Canada Narrow body series. This is my version of AC's B727-233 in their lastest paint scheme. The 727's never made it into this scheme and this was the last 727 to fly for Air Canada before being delivered to Federal Express. I thought it would be fun to imagine that 418 hung around for another year or two to make it into this scheme and to see what it might look like.
Fin 418 (c/n 21671) was delivered Nov. 1979 and made it's last flight in Air Canada colours Nov. 16 1992 on a roundtrip between Toronto CYYZ and Montreal CYUL as AC 435 & 424. 418 could be seen flying throughout North America on Air Canada's short-haul, Rapidair, transcontinental, and transborder routes. Before I get too much further I'd like to thank Everardo Diaz for the flight model and for giving permission to repaint his 27. I'd also like to thank all the people at Airliners.net where I downloaded the pics of AC's 727s. For further information on AC's B727s please see the enclosed B727-aca.txt for a complete listing. Happy landings and let me know what you think about the 727 in this colour scheme. I think it would have been a beautiful a/c. In the future I will paint this a/c into the single cheat line & capital letter scheme and the maroon scheme.

The Future:
Well my plans are to finish off the a/c's I have already started and to complete the entire Air Canada fleet in the current scheme. I think I'll next work on the B747 fleet which consisted of 100's, 200's, and 400's. Then I'll finish up with the rest of the Wide-body fleet. After I finish the current scheme plan to then do the a/c's in previous schemes but that will take me awhile.
