Toronto Pearson International Airport - ( YUL - CYUL )

 

Located 22km southwest of Toronto, the economic capital of Canada in the Ontario region, "Pearson" Airport is the largest in the country in terms of movements and passenger numbers. Not only does it connect the city to the rest of the world, but it is also the point of entry and departure for many cities across the country via regional connecting lines. The imposing complex consists of no less than 5 "+" shaped runways, three long east-west oriented crossed by two shorter "north-south". Two terminals are in the east and a third in the center of these tracks. To the north, the 23-05 mainly hosts the flights from and to the north and Europe, in the south the parallels 24L-06R and 24R-06L are rather destined to the traffic of the south and the United States. It should be noted that the 15L-33R and 15R-33L transversals are used only very rarely, early in the morning or when the wind blows strongly in the axis. Assertions about runway use are only radar and on-site observation, with local spotters preferring random dispersal between the north runway and the two south. The 3 terminals dedicated to traffic: Terminal 1 receives Air Canada and Star Alliance partners, T2 all other traffic except regional flights paid in Q3. North of the northern runway, a freight terminal, a general aviation booth and aircraft maintenance hangars. The Toronto-based companies are Air Canada, its subsidiary Rouge and the regional Air Canada Express which account for most of the traffic. The other companies based are in order of importance WestJet, Air Transat, Sunwings and Air Georgian. US airlines serve Pearson Airport on small planes: American Eagle, Delta and United. Europe is connected by its major airlines Air France, KLM, Lufthansa, LOT, Brussels Airlines, Alitalia, TAP and Icelandair. The Middle East is operated by Emirates, Etihad and Air India, Asia by Cathay, China Eastern, Korean and Hainan. There are no low-cost airlines in Toronto because of the very high cost of airport taxes, with the exception of WOW and Primera, which has just launched a line from London to compete with a walk through A321neo. Post office flights are operated daily by FedEx to the Memphis sorting center using Type 757 or MD11 aircraft. Many business jets are observed throughout the day. Finally, a few small Canadian companies operate year-round flights to the far north, such as Flair Air, First Air, Canadian North and Reaglan.

The purpose of our trip to Toronto was to mainly visit the city. However, our ardor and passion for zinc pushed us naturally to spend a few hours on the edge of tarmac history to take some pictures and breathe the good smell of kerosene. We arrived at 17h, our penultimate day of our journey, at the approach of runway 23. However, the spotting being sometimes a lottery and being pedestrians, we had very little traffic, the essential arriving 24R. Around 19h, luck finally smiled on us and we were able to observe interesting arrivals under a generous sun in the azure sky. The next day, the day of departure, we spent a few hours again at the threshold of 23 to freeze take-offs and some arrivals from noon, shortly before taking our return flight operated by Brussels Airlines by A330, direct return to the airport. city ​​of "Manneke Pis".

Check out the pictures of these few hours spent at Canada's largest airport.

Sans plus attendre, je vous laisse découvrir la moisson de photos réalisées au cours de nos deux journées, ainsi que quelques shoots depuis le terminal au moment où nous nous dirigeons vers la porte de notre vol de retour.
