Sure, except those tin cans haven’t been flying, en grand nombre, around YYC for a good few years. I know they do (did) out east to keep up frequencies to smaller stations, but not here. Aside from a few Saab 340s, the vast, vast majority of our movements have been Q400-B738 sized planes for quite some time now. When I say it’s quiet at YYC, it’s in regards to those sized planes. Just ask GW (copycat ) from YUL terminal, who was here last week on a fam. It was deadsville.
