Air France Concorde Comes to YVR - April 21, 1990

On April 21, 1990, Air France's F-BTSD Concorde visited Vancouver. There were a lot of spectators at the east end of the runway in what is now Air Port Park. Back then, it was common to drive on the grass and park to watch the planes take off and land. On that day, there must have been at least 50 cars parked waiting for the Concorde to arrive. It was a huge moment for plane spotters to see this iconic plane land at YVR!
