I'm close to YUL and often check flightradar24 ☺️

I live under SFO and wrote an Alexa app where I can ask what plane that is, and it tells me the plane and where it came from

I recently found out that a monthly pass on my city's transit system, which I have, is exempt from the extra charge when going to the airport (YVR), so hell yeah I'm taking advantage of that! They have two really cool observation areas outside security where you can see the gates and runway.
