Columbian Boeing 787 9 C-GCXZ

Columbian first ordered the 787 Dreamliner in 2011, to replace the ageing 757, 767 and 747.
The airline ordered 43 of the type in total. 17 were -8s, 20 were -9s, and 6 were -10s.
So far, 37 have been delivered so far.
In 2019, the airline was forced to ground 9 of its 787s due to issues with the Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines fitted to the aircraft.
All have since returned to service.

This aircraft, C-GCXZ, is based at Vancouver (YVR)
It is mainly used on flights to the South Pacific, operating the airline's inaugural route to Tahiti Faa'a on May 14, 2019.
