Great response, I appreciate the info!

I believe the new parallel will be Cat 2 or 3, can't remember which. Then I wonder if they will do the same to 35L/17R (looks odd to type that) when they do all the work on it for the year it will be shut down?

Approach and tower ATC seemed to understand keeping the ILS zone clear for them, the guy on radios for Cargolux was very insistent on making sure it was kept clear a couple of times. After landing they mentioned how their SOP's dictate that they needed verbal confirmation of the protected zone a couple of times, so he wasn't just being stubborn about it!

In other news, WestJet Encore just announced their headquarters and maintenance facility will be here at YYC!
