Theo,

Thanks for posting our "Snowbirds". They are a fine team of aviators!

How about some pics of the the "Golden Centennaires" that flew the same type in 1968?

The "Golden Centennaires" were formed for Canada's centennial celebrations (1967) and morphed into the "Snowbirds".

We might also require a shot of the "Golden Hawks" (our first jet demonstration team).

(Sorry Theo, not trying to impose on your domain. I enjoy your site immensely).

I've seen a lot of them fly: Thunderbirds; Blue Angels; Golden Hawks; Golden Centennaires; Snowbirds; Red Arrows; and the nervy Frecce Tricolori.....the Thunderbirds are good...but...
