Does anyone have any further detail? such as which local airfields they'll be doing their approaches at? Dan? Nick?

I can only speculate, as I don't think the locations will be released to the public. Pearson Airport (not as busy as usual), CFB Trenton or CYXU (London) would be my guesses.

Again, only speculating.

Thanks Dan. Would be interesting to know which fighters they're bringing to train along with the CF-18s. F-22s possibly, but F-35 not so likely.

Haven't seen anything reported to indicate this is any more than CF-18 Norad training in a congested airspace ,(which it's not congested anymore).

No, they weren't. Both jets didn't go below FL200 at any time today, simply stayed in Toronto airspace and conducted their exercise. They went to CFB Trenton following their training, landed and have already returned to CFB Bagotville.

OK Nick, thanks for the clarification. :)
