Looks like flight IFC6621 is not a Covid flight. Perhaps a support for an Indian Rafale delivery? The 6621 could indicate that this one was planned a lot earlier then the Covid flight which all seem to start with an 8.
For those who are not aware, the Iast two digits in the IFC callsign is the year, the 1st two are in subsequence So the first international flight of 2021 was IFC0121.

A fb post showed a C-17 of the RCAF (17703) dropped of at least two CH-146's Griffons for the Volfa2021 excercise. At least the special colored 146430 is present plus one in normal camo. Also a C-130J might be participating, but might do so from Mont de Marsan.
