๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ As part of today's #NORAD exercise, the part of the tanker will be played by #RCAF CC-150T 15004, now taxiing at #CYOW, showing the game is afoot.

iirc they used a Learjet as the unknown potentially hostile aircraft to intercept last time...

It was a Top Aces jet last year(?), so I'd guess this exercise is using the same contract vehicle.

Do I already have a list of Top Aces planes tho...

Well well, we have a gaggle of Top Aces fighters taking off from Bagotville. CHETA callsigns.

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ I've heard riffs on "when the planes are not in for repairs, which is often." in #cndpoli news before, but I've never seen any data to substantiate, or gov't reports which identify, higher than normal maintenance for the #RCAF CC-150 Polaris fleet.

Is there evidence?

Well,
Data exists that can be used to substantiate, or refute, the claim, using open source flight history. For my part, I can tell you the planes are in the air very regularly, and there is no sign of them being sidelined for unscheduled extended periods. (except the "mishap"; 15001)
What's that? You want to see it for yourself? Well, okay.

Check the below embeded link daily for a few years and get back to me.
