C-GHLV is moving towards twenty years in the skies. All that time has been spent with Air Canada, since 2015 with brand Air Canada Rouge. We photographed this Boeing 767-300ER on January 1, 2020 while plane spotting at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).

C-GHLV
C-GHLV performed its maiden flight on June 22, 2001. The Boeing 767-333ER was delivered to Air Canada on October 18, 2001. The B763 was then transferred to Air Canada Rouge on June 13, 2015.
One of 25 Boeing 767-300ER models in the fleet, this aircraft is configured for a maximum total of 282 passengers. There are 24 seats in premium economy and 258 economy class seats.
On July 28, 2015, shortly after switching colours, this airplane was flying from Montreal, Quebec to Rome, Italy. Flying at 31,000 feet, 100 miles out of Montreal, an overheated duct caused the crew to divert back to YUL. As a result, the anti-ice valve was replaced.
More recently, on March 27, 2018, this airliner was flying from Mexico City, Mexico to Toronto, Ontario. The tower nearly sent the airplane onto a runway for takeoff that would have put it in conflict with a landing plane. The crew noticed the conflict, informed the tower and the approaching aircraft was instructed to go around.

The B763 is 55 metres or 180 feet in length with a wingspan of 48 metres or 156 feet. At the tail, the airliner stands 16 metres or 52 feet in height. The flight range is 11,070 kilometres.
Air Canada Rouge
Air Canada Rouge was founded in December, 2012 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Air Canada. The brand has a fleet of over 60 aircraft flying to 50 destinations. Prior to March, 2020, there were 25 Boeing 767-300ER, 22 Airbus A319-100, four Airbus A320-200 and 14 Airbus A321-200 models.
The airline announced at the start of May, 2020 that all Boeing 767 and Airbus A319 aircraft would be retired, a result of the COVID-19 fallout. This leaves the brand with just 18 airlines, all either Airbus A321-200 or Airbus A320-200. Through the main airline, Rouge is a member of the Star Alliance.
