Original Toronto Star caption: A parking problem solved. It's like the old joke about the guy who had to cut holes in his garage to accommodate the tail-fins on his big new car. At Vancouver International Airport, this Northwest Airlines jet, a Boeing 707, just wouldn't fit into a hangar made for lesser craft. So semi-circular holes were carved in each of the twin doors. After all, whey go to the trouble of building a new hanger for sake of a few feet of tail assembly?
