It's a special day for special people.  It's home opener day for the 431 Air Demonstration Squadron, the Canadian Forces Snowbirds.

The pilots, technicians, engineering and logistics officers and support staff - the team - comes together today to show RCAF brass, family and friends what they've been up to for the past several months of intense training.

The Snowbirds are ready to take their show to the skies across North America, beginning next week in Louisiana before they fly to airshows in Pennsylvania and North Carolina in the days that follow.

These men and women who proudly call themselves "Snowbirds" are some of our best people.  They're intelligent, bright and highly skilled.  They demonstrate discipline and dedication.  

Here's to another stellar season.  We'll look forward to seeing our team at our show, Saskatchewan Airshow 2019 on July 6th and 7th when "Prairie Skies Come Alive" at 15 Wing - Moose Jaw.
