OK, it's done! Air Canada both North American and International for 1974 are coded. All equipment is accurate. Flightplans are extremely accurate, in the range of 97% I would say. The only real difficulty I had was the corridor between Toronto-Montreal which I could not quite get 100% perfect. This was mostly due to the presence of several legs of international flights on this domestic route that did were not included in the domestic timetable or the international timetable. But actually, AC ran a sort of shuttle between these two cities, so it would never be perfectly accurate, anyway.
REPAINTS NEEDED: Air Canada DC-9-30 or -40, or -50 and 747-200 for the red-white 70's c/s. There are flyable models available and also a DC-9-10 for the AIA model. DC-8-52 and L-1011 are available.

Great news. My ACA 86 schedule is half done, I feel your pain about the mix of domestic and international leg flights between the major cities. To make sure what repaints are missing, could you link to a picture for each please? Ralf

Thanks. I'll put them on my list, they are needed for the 86 schedule too.

Great job on coding all those flights!
I have an Air Canada DC-9-30 in the colors you need, for the Aardvark model. Let me knock it into shape later and get it posted to AVSIM.
Take care, Kurt

I never knew about that cool side, many thanks for sharing.
I saw that many HS748 are used, may I recommend that you download and install the aircraft that comes with the official Project AI "Air North" package. It has an improved FDE that is not avalable elsewhere as far as I know. The FDE eliminates the shaking while the aircrafts taxis.

Thanks. I had forgetten about that website. Unfortunately, the Air Canada aircraft there have the red titles in use in the 1980's rather than the black in use in 1974. So, I'd still appreciate a DC-9-30 with black titles.

I would contact Peter. If he still has the source files he could change it in a minute. If not, I could do it from scratch.
