AWAC over pond CYWG

[jagabom 21]

An AWAC just left CYWG, Winnipeg, Manitoba, CANADA. Looks like it is going north east over the pond. Was neat to see as you don't see them here ever.JimCYWGLocal time is 6:30 PM Tuesday

I wish I could tell ya Jeff but I can't.I see you are affiliated with them.Someone here a month or so ago used a program and found an Antonov that was in CYWG but I don't know how they did it.JimCYWG

Well, possibly around the time of the airshow, might see one.... :(I've seen the E-3 at the last Winnipeg airshow, and saw it coming in to land the day before (me living under the approach path for (what used to be?) runway 25)..I think there's been other AWACs at other Winnipeg airshows too....Still, extremely rare to see one around here... :)
