Well, advanced Happy Canada Day to all on the DAC. Canada will be turning 150 years old on July 1st. I will be heading to the nation's capital of Ottawa to do some family camping and also celebrate with about 1/2 million another folks to ring in Canada Day. Thought I would share some photos of my latest Air Canada model from the fine folks at Inflight 200 to kick off the 150th Canada Day! It's been quite awhile since I last acquired an L-1011 model. I kinda like this retro livery compared to the new one. Cheers! T7 (yes, natural lighting was used for the photo shoot)

Morning Folks
Nice Tri-Star !!
If I weren't so into 747s my choice would have been Tri-Star to collect they bring back a lot of great memories at Heathrow

btw: why is the air lanka livery basically the same as air canada?
did air lanka buy old canadian jets and tried to get away with as little repainting as possible?

As I understood it the plane was leased t Air Lanka and came back hence the hybrid livery. It's pretty much a Air Lanka livery with maple leaf and Air Canada titles.

Thank you kindly, sir! You can't go wrong with either the B747 or Tri-Star for fleet building.

However, I like this Air Canada version better.

My favorite AC livery is the combo of dark and medium red.
Yeah, the Tristar really makes the AC retro livery stand out on the tarmac and in the skies! Hope to see AC roll out one of their birds with an AC retro paint job for the plane spotters.
