I'm wondering the same thing about STARS.
Pretty sure I saw STAR1 go into the restricted zone this morning and up into the Bow Valley area.

As for the cloud seeders I could see that being viewed as not essential at all versus operational security, and they have to stay clear.

Ummm so is there really a Canadian Airforce Airbus CC-150T Polaris with the tag of HOSER22? Or is that just someone with a sense of humour on FlightRadar24?

There is an OILR97 too, which is not so awesome.

Can't possibly be a Department of Defence aircraft.

Likely a dive bomber.

What was the very large, military looking plane that just left YYC about 5-10 minutes ago? Took off north, then turned east.

Edit: the flight thing finally worked for me - looks like a Globemaster.

With Trump gone, the security around the viewing areas still seems pretty ramped up. What’s the deal?

Did all of the Ospreys go with Trump back to the States?

The US still has some cabinet members and other government officials in town. I doubt they require ultra high level security but may get some level of VIP protection.

I saw one go out towards the mountains today around 1:30 and then turned around and headed back to airport. It made it out as far as scenic acres or so.
