I doubt there is an exercise going on. The Reserve units in Calgary are dismissed until the fall, and many of them are doing work up training for Afghanistan right now because about 60 soldiers will deploy for A-stan shortly. If it is an exercise, the soldiers wouldn't be from Calgary, and I don't see that happening. Edmonton soldiers would do exercises in Edmonton or just hop on the bus to Wainwright.

The helos themselves would most likley have to be from 4 Wing Cold Lake.

I would like to see these helos. Where are they flying? Downtown?
