Any plane watchers in Ottawa or airport watchers?

I was near  the airport today  05 June 2013 around 1630 hrs and two  military style aircraft flew over.  Not up on my  fighter jets or trainers.  Looked like single engine, only  1 tail section so I ruled out CF 18s, ( CCF 118s) thought maybe trainers. Anyone else see them?
Just  curious as to what  I saw.
thanks
 
Unrelated to what you saw, but over here not far from Halifax, for the last hour i have been watching large planes flying by ten at a time, side by side one group after another.

Check out this page. Did it look like the second plane? Did the plane have a camo scheme?

Its a good chance its one of the Alpha jets that I posted about at the bottom of that post.
 
The two jets were airborne and taking on speed, all I saw was a quick glance as they  flew over head of the rear section so I have no clue. My  thought was they  were trainers that  were here for the Military Trade show in Ottawa. But I am only  guessing.

CANSEC was on last week.
 
I know the Alpha Jets are in town doing CAS in Pet. My guess is that's what you saw.
