Snowbirds Grounded, New Planes Coming
Description
Canadian Snowbirds to Ground Until 2030s: New Jets on the Way
The iconic Canadian Snowbirds, known for their aerobatic performances, will be grounded after the 2026 season due to the age of their current Tutor jets, which have been in service since the 1960s. A new plane, the CT-157 Siskin II, will be introduced, but the Snowbirds may not return to the air until the early 2030s. The air force will continue to support air shows with other aircraft from their operational fleets.
