Orangeville sits under the south-western training country used by Camden's light aircraft and gliders — low daylight traffic over the farmland, with true numbers above the tracked count since many of these aircraft carry no transponder.
Light-aircraft counts are tracked overflights only — many training and private aircraft carry no ADS-B transponder, so true numbers are higher.
