Snowbirds to be grounded following 2026 season until new aircraft arrive
Snowbirds to be grounded following 2026 season until new aircraft arrive
I did a bit of a double-take here:
The Swiss-made, turbo-prop CT-157 Siskin II has been chosen to replace the Snowbird squadron. The planes are already on order and are being delivered for use as the air force’s initial pilot training aircraft.
Sure enough, these are not jet aircraft.
