Good find. You can see why the team kinda wished we had enough aircraft for abduct location in Newfoundland.

How many C-295s will eventually be stationed?

we bought 16 so 4 per station seems logical: one on hot standby, one available with notice one in the hangar to be brought up when needed and one in the shop at a guess. Please correct if my logic is faulty. Didn't the original competition require the bidder to assess and respond to Canada's needs. I wonder why they ignored both the north and the east coast with their replies

thats what i was thinking too but maybe there was an extra in Comox. The north seems to require a different response but I can see the value in the Gander/far east station just from the incident map

I think it was 3 each, except Comox, which has the OTU.
