But blame Mr. Peever mostly. He started this crazy rumour that 747s could be found at YVR, even claiming to have seen 3 of them there at once. Such an impossibility...
Edit: here's the thread where it all started:
Vancouver Sun : Unfriendly skies. Things got started with post #12 and #15. Been a running joke pretty much ever since.
What, I step away for some light refreshments and I get paged? LOL
@capedreamer
Marlin240 is correct.

Now we can all play along together
