Spring training begins for The Canadian Forces Snowbird team on Monday afternoon at 19 Wing Comox. The location is chosen because it provides an opportunity to practice over mountains and water. Marking 100 years of flight in Canada, the Snowbird Demo Team will conduct fly-past’s of 100 Canadian towns and cities during the 2009 season.
The Snowbirds Demonstration Team (431 Squadron) is a Canadian icon comprised of serving members of the Canadian Forces. Their pilots and technicians work as a team to bring thrilling performances to the North American public. Serving as Canadian ambassadors, the Snowbirds demonstrate the high level of professionalism, teamwork, excellence, discipline and dedication inherent in the women and men of the Air Force and the Canadian Forces.
