The Snowbirds aerobatic team is also known as the 431 Air Demonstration Squadron of the Canadian Forces. It came into existence in 1970-71. The aircraft its pilots were flying back then, and are still flying today, are the Canadian-designed and built Canadair CT-114 Tutor jet trainer. While the name Snowbirds was formally adopted in 1971, the team officially became the Canadian Forces Air Demonstration Team in January 1975 before becoming an actual squadron in April 1978. Between shows, this unit is stationed at Canadian Forces Base Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. As of mid 2017, the Snowbirds have performed on about 2 600 occasions, in Canada and also in the United States. Les Snowbirds sont une équipe acrobatique aussi connu sous le nom 431 Escadron de Démonstration D'air des Forces canadiennes. L'équipe a pris sa forme en 1970-71. Les avions opérés par les pilotes à ce temps-là et aujourd'hui sont les CT-114 Tutor jet trainer. Le nom ‘'Snowbirds'' a été adopté en 1971 mais avant de devenir un escadron officiel en avril de 1978 l'équipe a eu le nom l'équipe de Démonstration D'air des Forces canadiennes brièvement en 1975. Entre les démonstrations l'équipe est stationnée en Saskatchewan à la base des Forces canadiennes à Moose Jaw. Depuis 2017 les Snowbirds ont participé a plus de 2600 fois entre le Canada et les États-Unis.
Function
This flying suit was worn to provide protection to the wearer and may have been the one he would wear during air shows, within the Canadair CT-114 Tutor he was assigned to. Cette combinaison de vol était portée pour protéger le porteur et a peut-être été utilisé pendant des démonstrations de vol à l'intérieur de l'avion CT-114 qu'il pilotait.
Technical
The donor completed two tours with 431 Air Demonstration Squadron of the Canadian Forces, a unit better known as the Snowbirds aerobatic team. His role on these tours was varied. He embarked on one tour as an aero engine technician, in 1985-86, and one as the crew chief in 1998-99. Le donateur a complété deux tours avec l'escadron 431 Démonstration D'air des Forces canadiennes. L'escadron est plutôt connu comme l'équipe acrobatique Snowbirds.
