Hasn't anyone thought about the implications of what the government admits to doing?

Forget that they factually, deliberately, stopped transmitting Mode-S/ADS-B to hide their "training" operations over Ottawa; what is their data retention policy, on the data they collected from… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Let's review the flight data that shows the arrival of American-registered N330TT #A3978A call sign CAVE033 operated by MAG Aerospace (per contract) from when they arrived in Ottawa on Tuesday January 25, 2022 from Hagerstown, Maryland - immediately before the arrival of the… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Image

Gripe:
The CAF display poor situational awareness re public visibility of πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ #RCAF aircraft.

Examples:
- #14WingGreenwood deployments to Keflavik
- #19WingComox #OpCARIBBE Jan/Feb 2023
- #CANSOFCOM ISR over #Ottawa Jan 27/28 2022
- Withdrawal x2 CC-130J from #OpIMPACT Aug 2022
What about #14WingGreenwood deployments to Keflavik?

It's only a matter of time before the CP-140 Aurora deployments to Keflavik, that coincide with Russian Navy movements through the GIUK gap, get traction in the press.

They pretend it's not happening. We see them. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ
What about the #19WingComox #OpCARIBBE Jan/Feb 2023 operation?

They pretended the press couldn't see it happening and wouldn't talk about it like it was some secret operation. Au contraire, it was so visible I live-tweeted it.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦βš”οΈ Can we figure out which aircraft brought the #CANSOFCOM members back from Niger who were deployed on #OpNABERIUS πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬?
If the person in charge was trying to be nice they would have sent something comfortable, like a CC-150 Polaris... did they? Let's look.

I checked back to 2022-11-01, and of course not; these are the elite Canadian ninjas of CANSOFCOM, they don't need to be comfortable.

Let's see if they stuffed them on the back of a CC-177 Globemaster III with their gear.

You know what I haven't seen fly lately? US-registered #N330TT shell company-owned, related to MAG Aerospace. That's the famous ISR King Air that #CANSOFCOM contracted to conduct "training" (with their ADS-B transponder off) over Ottawa.

#A3978A

Normal aircraft cannot degrade their transponder emissions and go from using ADS-B (broadcasting their exact location) to simple Mode-S (no location broadcast) only a day apart; it's a signature of a spook plane, and I thank them for a great example of one

Here we see what ISR training looks like, hours of precise orbits around a target. They're using Mode-S, so the jaggy lines are from multilateration slop; their flight path is actually very smooth, the jaggies are just a sensor anomaly.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ It should be pretty easy to prove the American-registered ISR aircraft conducting surveillance over Ottawa in late January and early February was not related to the convoy. A course plan? Any documentation re: booking the training?

#N330TT appears out of nowhere over Metcalf at 3000ft, lands at #YOW; it made it that far without being detected by open source flight trackers. That's suspicious; private aircraft can't do that.
We know now it's a spook plane, not just private.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Follow me down a parachute training plane rabbit hole, filled with speculation and discovery!

I find the planes used by the Canadian Forces to conduct parachute training extremely interesting (I'm sure some wish I didn't), because they're πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ planes; usually call sign #CFC0300
Well, today there's a chunky bird flying over Arnprior, and it looks like it's been doing the same dance of the bumblebee that the Canadian Forces would normally do during training; but not the right callsign. Not deterred, I wondered if they forgot (or intentionally) skipped it.
It could also be a civilian parachuting company, who brought up a plane from the United States...? I really don't know, maybe they're awfully busy. Maybe business is really good, for fall skydiving in Arnprior, during a pandemic?
