FS2004 Air Canada Cargoliner Vanguard 952F

Air Canada modified only one Vanguard to a pure freighter. Called the Cargoliner it was converted at the end of 1966. Both Air Canada and BEA saw the potential of using Vanguards for pure freight. Air Canada did not go beyond this initial conversion and did not fit a freight door although all the windows were deleted. Later this became the final Air Canada Vanguard when, seven months after the cease of passenger flights by the airline it was retired in May 1972. Sold to EAS as F-BTYB in December of that year it last flew on 29th May 1976 and was used for spares. Requires the FSDS Vanguard model by Rick Piper. By Garry Russell.
