I love that expression. I'd never heard it before. Merci MDCM.

I'm curious about our increasing connecting traffic. If the 4,000 were all O/D, that would be 2,000 additional check-ins and 2,000 additional baggage claims a day, holy cow.

Le cycle de croissance interne d'Air Canada est en train de ralentir. Ce n'est pas spécifique à Montréal. Rappelons qu'à la fin des années 90, le dessert quotidien TATL d'Air Canada à Dorval c'était un A330 vers CDG, un 767 vers Heathrow et un 767 vers Francfort qui s'arrêta quelquefois à Halifax. Depuis ce temps Air Canada a beaucoup fait pour developper CYUL. Il y aura toujours plus de destinations potentielles pour servir, mais elles doivent correspondre au plan d'affaires de la société, qu'il s'agisse de Montréal, de Toronto, de Vancouver ou ailleurs.

Si tel est le cas, une jolie clôture fera partie de la solution. Mais le fait d'avoir a traverser une artère (et sans autre option) pour accèder un terrain de jeux c'est pas génial.

Ultimately both sides wish to simultaneously expand their market share while resisting competition, hence bilaterals that aim to meet the needs of both countries.

The angles, the metal framing, and (once completed) the two colour contrast. Des échos et non pas du duplicata.

Photo taken last week, a final look at Pascal's Restaurant Supplies before demolition was completed.

Photo prise la semaine dernière. Y aurait-il d'autres sur ce forum qui remarquent quelques échos d'un pavillon d'Expo 67 dans ce projet? A nice salute to Expo's 50th anniversary.

Photo prise en début de semaine.

Photos prises samedi dernier, le 8 juillet. Although this is not in itself a huge construction element, it represents a significant step in this very delayed endeavour. One more view, a close-up of a steel beam waiting to be lifted into place for the westbound A-20 exit ramp.

Captured this a few minutes ago on the dickiemoore.com webcam. At 4:14 p.m. today Air Transat 737-800 C-GTQB operating TS851 PUJYUL and approaching Trudeau 06L performed a go-around as Air Canada A320 C-FDSU AC777 YULLAX was still taking off on the active.

Et alors les bureaux de l'ONF? En fin compte c'est l'aménagement au rez de chaussée (et non pas les étages en hauteur) qui peut servir a encourager un bon 'vibe'. Tel est le cas au Complèxe Desjardins, monstre en beton mais quand même capable au niveau de rue (axe Ste-Catherine) de créer un atmosphere festive. I would demolish the rowhouses, create a large plaza serving as a southerly extension of the Jeanne-Mance festival axis, back it with a signature highrise on the south flank and a smaller structure on the west side echoing the volume of the ONF/NFB and serving as a southerly continuation of that axis of buildings. The smaller structure would have ground floor commerces fronting on Ste-Catherine. In other words Canderel's 'Tour Spectrum' site design but with the taller building set further back and with the rowhousing removed. If the taller building housed a hotel, the north facing rooms could be very sought after for their direct views down to the Scène TD.

6 to 8 remote stands for widebodies. I thought I'd read that figure in a mtlurb.com thread but I can't locate it so please don't take my numbers as the gospel truth.

A very noticeable change at YUL in the past couple of years is the upgauge from Dash-8-200s to the 300s and Q400s on all sorts of Jazz sectors. Ottawa, Quebec City, Bathurst, Moncton, Charlottetown, the available seat numbers have gone way up, so more opportunities for connectivity to mainline. (I have no info on how much LF has gone up, though).
