He already flew again....so I think this would be no problem at all.

He hasn't flown yet. But the cast comes off this week, so provided he doesn't do it again (
), he'll be good to go well before the 19th.

Perhaps you have forgotten the USAF C-17? (They have a better experience with demonstrating theire a/c then the CAF
)

Well, in my opinion, 2 C-17s would've been better than 1, but on the other hand, 1 is better than none as I have never seen a Globemaster before

As mentioned in the participants part; the CDN C-17 is cancelled due to operational requirements; leave one left (USAF)
