Vanguard routes updated - Canadian routes available now

[RAF_Quantum]

Hi Guys,

I have updated the Vanguard routes - I've added a few more European routes, changed the flight numbers in order to use previously unused ones and.....................................added flightplans for Trans-Canadian Airlines/Air Canada Vanguard routes.

We have three airframes that will be transferring to Montreal/Toronto where they will be based. I haven't looked at the ferry route yet but I will probably use Prestwick as a UK launch point and the destination will be either St Johns or Gander where they can pick up the TCA/AC routes. If anyone would like to ferry an aircraft across the pond then please post below.

CF-TKE currently at EGLL
CF-TKQ currently at EGCC
CF-TKU currently at EGCC

Edit : Flightplans are filed :

CBFCAN1 0800 EGCC EGPK 0845
CBFCAN1 0945 EGPK BIKF 1235
CBFCAN1 1335 BIKF BGBW 1605
CBFCAN1 1705 BGBW CYQX 2005

CBF9016 can be used for CF-TKE from EGLL-EGPK

Would you believe, I'm at Manchester this very moment I'll be happy to take either KQ or KU over (flips coin) KU ;-) Am happy to plan my own route or await yours :dance:

Hi Dave,

I've filed the flightplans at FlyNET and have edited the initial post with the details of routing : Prestwick - Keflavik - Narsarsuaq - Gander

Hi John,

Many thanks for that. I'd had a look at PK to Kef and estimated around 2.5hrs then Kef to Gander at 4.5hrs but am more than happy to go Kef-Nar-Gan ;-)

Ooo.. I'm all excited

Hi John.

I should be back at Heathrow by the end of the weekend if you still need a volunteer to take CF-TKE. I would be more than happy to take a trip across the pond


Cheers

Hi Andy,

As you're the first to ask, consider the LHR Vanguard yours ;-)

Hi Andy,

Feel free to take 'KE from LHR. I'll take 'KQ from MAN so I reckon that's them all sorted.

Hi Guy's,

I thought that Garry had uploaded these paints over at the pond but he obviously hasn't so I'll do the honours on this thread. Might as well do it right if we're to do it at all hey! ;-)

I'll get em up this afternoon.. within the hour

EDIT
All three Air Canada paints can be downloaded from HERE
