Canadian fighter jets will be carrying out operations at CFB Suffield from Thursday to Monday, the National Defense department said.

CF-188 Hornets based in Cold Lake will approach from Calgary en route to the Suffield base’s range training area, according to a news release.

Citizens may observe “routine aerial movements” while the planes fly south.

Once the jets reach Suffield, people may see pilots practice tactical maneuvers about the training area.

The training will take place during the day and live munitions will not be used, officials said.
