About three years ago, I made a video talking about one of the most unique transatlantic flights that Canada gets - Condor's seasonal service between Frankfurt and Whitehorse, Yukon.
In September 2022, I finally got to fly that very route!

A clear morning in Calgary is one of the ultimate times to go plane spotting at YYC, with some unbeatable views of downtown and the Rockies in the distance!
This morning filmed back in April was a bit on the hazy side, but still had some great traffic and awesome city views. Enjoy these 19 departures!

![RARE DOUGLAS DC-8 STILL FLYING! Samaritans Purse DC-8 and 757 at Calgary Airport! [4K]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/NTNNyN-5B98/mqdefault.jpg "RARE DOUGLAS DC-8 STILL FLYING! Samaritans Purse DC-8 and 757 at Calgary Airport! [4K]
Yesterday, Calgary International Airport got perhaps the rarest visit of the year. Humanitarian organization Samaritans Purse brought in their Boeing 757 and their Douglas DC-8, which is one of the last ones flying in the world!
The 757 is a fairly recent addition to their operation, but the DC-8 has been flying with them since 2016.
This 55-year-old DC-8-72 Combi first entered service with Finnair in 1969, and also flew with the French Air Force and Air Transport International before being purchased by Samaritans Purse.
Both planes were here bringing in an Emergency Field Hospital to their warehouse here in Calgary. The hospital and its supplies will be based here and ready to be deployed by their Canadian division.
With barely any DC-8s still flying around the world, and NASA retiring theirs in the next few months, the plane itself is an extremely rare sight.
To see one of these in operation in 2024, right at home, was pretty unbelievable, so I hope you enjoy!
