    Air Canada E-175 and E-190 Update

    I have noticed over the years that AC keeps their flight numbers and flight times consistent but seems to change the equipment types sometimes fairly often and on sometimes only a few weeks notice.Ten days ago AC had 3 175's in the fleet and 5 a day to LGA with some days seeing all three at LGA at the same time around 1530. They now have 5 as F/N 375 just landed here, but starting Tue 9-6 they only have 3 a day to LGA departing at 0655, 1100 and 1530 with arrivals at 1017,1439 and 2059. They are running the 175 to ORD, ATL, BOS, DCA and EWR.
    In Nov LGA-YUL shows all 319's with just one 175 to YYZ, it seems LGA has already outgrown the new airplane. But come Dec 1st the E-190 goes on line, as Phil D posted in the news it's first route is the new EWR-YYC Nonstop and that first line of flying appears to be EWR-YYC-EWR-YYZ-EWR
    with both EWR arrivals after dark. I am sure AC's Dec schedules are not finalized but I did find an E-190 operating YYZ-LGA on Dec 15 and 16 then every day after Jan 2nd so it is coming for sure, Thanks AC ! And BTW the newest two 175's 374 and 375 are a slightly lighter shade of toothpaste blue than all the other new colors AC aircraft !

    I spotted C-FEJD (375) today at LGA while waiting for the US E170s. Pretty nice aircraft, brand new only delivered 26 August 2005. I have a photo waiting in the queue for JetPhotos.net.

    For those wondering, 374 is registered as C-FEJC

    ron, it sometimes looks like all of the AC airplanes have different shades of paint. it's strange, but depending on the light and the angle each airplane can have a unique color.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Yeah, it all really depends on the lighting. Sometimes the light gives it a deep color that doesn't look good, and other times it gives a light blue color which looks awesome.
