解説C-GKOM A340-541 Air Canada YVR 09JUL04 (11620859774).jpg
English: This aircraft was originally due for delivery in May-03, however at that time Air Canada were in the Canadian equivalent of 'Chapter 11' bankruptcy protection and the aircraft was stored at Chateauroux (CHR) in France. It was eventually delivered in Jun-04 although by that time Air Canada didn't really want it. It was in service for just over 3 years until it was sub-leased to TAM in Brazil as PT-MSL. TAM operated it until Oct-11 when it was replaced by their newly delivered B777-300ER's. It had a maintenance check at Malta (MLA) and was stored at Rio de Janeiro - Galileo (GIG) in Nov-11. As of Dec-13, it's still in storage. There's a photo of it as PT-MSL at <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/kenfielding/3170444857">www.flickr.com/photos/kenfielding/3170444857</a>
