The jet in the foreground, fin #740, is almost brand new in this photo, having been delivered in Air Canada in March, 1969. It stayed in service with Air Canada until 1998, then served a south-east Asian airline before being scrapped in 2006.

State of the Art

Well, no, not really. It's a Vickers Viscount, the last prop plane that Air Canada had in service, the last one being retired in 1974.
