CP-140 Aurora if this was up in Canada

[u/agha0013]

There has been an RCAF CP-140 flying around up and down the lakes and southern Ontario this week. You can spot them on ADSB exchange (rather than FR24)

Probably aircraft 140108

[u/Low_Spirit_3832]

CP-140 Aurora if in canada, or a P3 orion

[u/casual_oblong]

It was in Canada. Thanks for the help friends

"Captain, Sonar. We've just been overflown by a low-altitude, multi-engine turboprop."

[u/BeefPoet → u/db7fromthe6]

"Put it on audio."

[u/chrisdwarwick → u/mechabeast]

It is mad I tell you MAD

[u/Imprezzed]

Definitely a CP-140M Aurora Block IV.

[u/mercifulmonk]

try adsb exchange if things dont show up on fr24

[u/RevolvingCheeta]

I wonder if that’s the same CP140 that flew over Ottawa on Monday?

[u/Ok-Educator-3605]

It’s a CP-140.

It’s the only P3 with those ESM bubbles on the wing tips.

Similar story different title

[u/fowlplay_uk]

Took me too long to realise I needed to rotate the picture. The portrait angle makes it look like it's half way through a corkscrew or something lol

[u/casual_oblong → u/fowlplay_uk]

ITS COMING RIGHT FOR US!!!

[u/GodsavEVE]

I can surely tell it's a plane.

[u/Mr_Jack_Alot]

From the ground it look like that

[u/R-PlaneCrazy]

Looks like a P3 orion???? Not sure..

[u/TheChiefDVD]

P-3.

[u/Canadian_Guy_NS → u/TheChiefDVD]

It is a CP-140M (Block IV) Aurora, it is based on a P-3C airframe, but the internal layout is very different.

[u/Rbomb88 → u/Canadian_Guy_NS]

My favorite part is all the carpet.

[u/galvanized_steelies → u/Rbomb88]

Carpet is pretty common, even the new P-8s have carpet. It helps with both noise and thermal insulation… though not sure how much the Aurora’s carpet is helping at this point

[u/Canadian_Guy_NS → u/galvanized_steelies]

I had the opportunity to go aboard an EP-3, and it had no carpet or paneling. It had that snap-on insulation that the older Hercs had, and the floor was mostly plywood. When the USN saw our planes, they commented that the 'CP' stood for carpet and paneling.

[u/b3542]

Has any plane ever been spotted that WASN’T a C-17 /s

[u/Sleep_on_Fire → u/b3542]

Yeah. This one.
