Canadian Armed Forces are helping the security detail. So far, CAF CC-177s (C-17) Globemaster has brought in eight CH-146 Griffons helicopters. This is the first arrival of CC-177 at YVR. See my up-loaded photos.
Three CF-188 (F/A-18) are now stationed at YVR taking over the cross wind runway 12/30. They sat in a tent at the end of the runway.
All kinds of CAF aircrafts have been in and out, including C-130, Twin Otter, Sea King, Challenger and A310.
Plane spotters must park 3M (10 feet) away from all fences.
