Convention?

I saw two AN-124’s there - flightaware.com/live/flight/VDA4 … /KNKX/CYTR.

KNKX is a Navy air station so it is a military operation. The US military doesn’t have aircraft large enough to carry some of its equipment.

The Miramar Air Show was last week. Might be connected to that.

Volga-Dnepr filed for operating authority to operate 3 flights on or about 18 October from San Diego/Miramar to Montreal to Prestwick to Burgas to Al-Ain to Mumbai to carry US NAVY Submersible Rescue Equipment for US Department of Navy Underseas Rescue Command.

Gee, I love that kind of talk.
