French Air Force Airbus A330-223 @ Toronto Pearson Int’l

French Air Force Airbus A330-223 @ Toronto Pearson Int’l March 19 and 20, 2018Here is another cool aircraft that was captured on 19MAR18 and I am glad I got its departure on 20MAR18, a French Air Force Airbus A330-223! Here is how it unfolded:

I received a tip off of a French Air Force Airbus A330-223 coming into Toronto around 1330hrs from Philadelphia, reason unknown. I had tracked the bird into Philadelphia around 1330hrs so I concluded that the aircraft was coming a bit later than scheduled. Unknown to me was the fact that this bird had made a really quick stop and by the time I was able to relocate it, it was around the Buffalo premises already so I had to floor it for a bit. They were planned RWY 06L originally but were given RWY 05 at the request of the French. What a cool bird it sure was and I am glad to have the French Air Force Transport Fleet down!

I was also able to get the departure of the French the next day, with a departure around 1700hrs to be planned off of RWY 06L to Shannon but ending up to a be a RWY 05 departure, so I got it at the end of RWY 23 as she lifted away on her course!

Thanks for the visit! Until next time! 🙂 Enjoy the video everyone!
