Montrealers may want to keep an eye on the sky Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n
Aircraft from the Patrouille de France, the French Air and Space Force\u2019s aerobatic demonstration team, are expected to soar over Montreal at about 2:15 p.m., according to the Canadian Armed Forces. The team is scheduled to pass over Quebec City about 15 minutes later.<\/p>\n
The flyby is intended to highlight the longstanding co-operation between the French and Canadian military, as well as ties between France, Quebec and Canada.<\/p>\n
The aircraft will follow the St. Lawrence River before landing at Canadian Forces Base Bagotville in Saguenay for a brief stop. The team is returning to France after participating in the \u201cLibert\u00e9 250\u201d mission in the United States.<\/p>\n
The Canadian Armed Forces said the aircraft will fly at an altitude of at least 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle along their route. The flyby will take place only if weather conditions permit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Montrealers may want to keep an eye on the sky Sunday afternoon.
