My first flight was on a DC8-54 YYZ to YQR when I was 13. I have lots of DC8 flights under my belt as I was a loadmaster on Air Canada's DC8-73 freighters in the early 90's.
As a youngster, I was lucky enough to fly on UA's 70 series DC8s quite a few times around the western US and to Hawaii. I loved those planes with their big windows and four shiny silver engines.
Anyone ever fly on points of call or holidairs DC-8-53s back in the late 80s early 90s?They flew alot out of YYC and YEG to varoius holiday destinations.

I have seen them at FLL. I planned to fly, but getting the ticket from France proved daunting.
