C-FWCN
C-FWCN took its first flight on June 23, 2003. The Boeing 737-7CT was delivered to WestJet on August 7, 2003. The aircraft is configured for a maximum total of 134 passengers. There are 12 seats in premium economy and 122 economy class seats. This is one of 52 Boeing 737-700 models in the main fleet of this Canadian airline.
On November 19, 2015, this B737 was flying from Tampa, Florida to Toronto, Ontario. On final approach, crew received an ANTISKID INOP indication. The first attempt at landing was aborted. On the second approach, the same message was received. The aircraft followed through for a safe landing. As a result, the right side antiskid valve was found to be the problem and was replaced.
