The training will take place between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on May 6 and night training will take place from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. on May 7. 

“Residents can expect to see up to four CH-146 Griffon aircraft with door guns and hear military aircraft in this area,” a statement from National Defence reads. 

“No ammunition will be used in the door guns, and no firing of weapons will take place during the training.”

The statement concludes by thanking residents for their cooperation.
