Since Cargo aprons are near 17R I’m guessing 17R.

Perhaps, but we’ll let the winds tell the tale.

Calgary normally departs and lands Both Parallels. We have a lot of PAX Guys to. I’m expecting 50-75 People at the airport. So both parallels will definitely be needed for departure

Yup definitely, but quite a taxi to 17L

Let’s hope we can use 17L/R instead of the 35s

Yea I’m pretty sure you guys can depart 17R but there will be a departure line due to spacing.

Yea absolutely.

And have to watch for people on parallels who think it’s just alright to turn into the other runways departure path. Lolol. (I’m hoping to have a Departure Controller)
