C-GTAI (cn 19434) Taken in April 1976 in Toronto,this classic Boeing 707 wears the colors of Canadian airline Transair....Flying for almost 30 years it finally ran out of money and was acquiired by Pacific Western in Dec 1979...This 707, ex-NWA N353US was the only one they operated...In 1976 the president of the failing airline actually hid the B707 from creditors in the NW Territories of Canada until they sold it to Bangladesh Biman Airlines....wow!
