Going to Pearson airport in Toronto with my dad is one of my few early childhood memories. I don’t know exactly where we were but it was a popular enough spot that someone had set up a hotdog stand. In my mind it very clearly registers as a scene from the 80s. The aircraft everyone was hoping for was the 747. I still remember the roar of that thing coming in.
Rush fans will know this, but part of the HN crowd won’t and likely find it interesting: there’s a musical connection between Rush’s YYZ song and the Morse code identifier transmitted from a nav beacon at the Pearson Airport (IATA code YYZ)
