A Royal Canadian Air Force CC-130 Hercules from CFB Trenton will conduct a flyby over the Ottawa Redblacks game at TD Place Stadium Saturday afternoon.
The aircraft from 424 Transport and Rescue Squadron will fly at an altitude no lower than 500 feet above the highest obstacle on their route.
The flyby will happen at approximately 4 p.m.
Flybys by RCAF aircraft are carefully planned and closely controlled for public safety, and are dependent upon weather and operational requirements.
The CC-130H Hercules is primarily used for search and rescue operations.
While it also carries out transport missions, its main focus is saving lives through the Canadian Armed Forces search and rescue mandate.
The RCAF says it is proud to share in national sporting events with flybys that allow them to demonstrate the capabilities of their personnel and aircraft to Canadians.
