Just saw this monster of an aircraft arrive at PJIA. Don't know why a Canadian Airforce plane has arrived but it came in from Fort Lauderdale.

No good pictures, as I only have some from the side. It's still here. Hoping maybe I can catch it taking off.

It’s probably a training flight. The RCAF has been known to do training flights into SXM in the past.

I'm watching mahobeach cam now, waiting for take-off. ATC just requested a low pass over the field after the C-17 takes off, so people can take photos. Unfortunately, the crew said that will not be possible. Sounds like they are headed south, toward St. Kitts.
