The RCAF Snowbirds Team are to replace their Canadair CT-114 Tutor jet aircraft,with a variant of the Pilatus PC-21 turboprop trainer,the CT-157 Siskin II.
The Tutor fleet will be permanently retired after the 2026 air show season,meaning the Snowbirds will enter a hiatus until the new fleet is fully operational in the early 2030s.
