About
Discover Canada’s history of high-flying, thrill-seeking aerobatic teams who have pushed themselves, and their aircraft, to the limit! Featuring the Sky Lancers, Golden Hawks, Golden Centennaires, Red Knight, CF-18 Demonstration Team, and the Snowbirds, this exhibit is family friendly and youth oriented.
Explore the history and legacy of each team and delve into what it takes to fly an aerobatic routine with engaging interactive exhibit elements focused on aerobatic formations and maneuvers.
This travelling exhibition was created by the National Air Force Museum of Canada with funding and support provided by the RCAF Centennial Committee.
