They'll be at the Reno Air races in September, too. Sharing the billing with the Thunderbirds.
WooHoo! The Snowbirds are a great team.

The Snowbird may not fly the most whiz-bang of today's jets, but they are DAMN good at what they do!
And as for the RCAF...they occasionally fly CF-18's down to airshows...and those guys can FLY! Tricked-out shows with the best of them.
I have great respect for those fliers!

I salute the good Canadians who are willing to join its armed forces.
But what's with those jets? They look like jet technology from the late 1950s.

They aren't fast, but the Snowbirds fly them TIGHT.

There has been talk of switching to CF-18s I believe. It's tradition ... for now ... to fly the Tutors. They WILL have to upgrade eventually though.

You are exactly right. Give the Canucks another five years, and they will go down our way as well.
