People Are Awesome 2016: Canadian Forces Snow Birds!

[@JessJess347]

Rest in piece to those pilots who died on this day

[@elvismark6816]

It kills me when someone can't remember a person who flew the snowbirds and a proper name no thumbs up man

[@pugle1]

Glad you chose to show off the Snow Birds on People are Awesome. All Canadians are grieving the loss of Capt. Jenn Casey. These folks are TRULY awesome. Thanks for posting this. What a wonderful video!

[@christinalavicka6046]

THAT was SO much fun!! Just got back from Reno for the races and am involved with Air Venture. Woo Hoo! You all ROCK on!!

[@warri0r_catz_r0bl0x8]

OMG I LOVE THE SNOWBIRDS AND IM OBSESSED WITH THEM, i watch them everyday and im there biggest fan!

[@larrymoore970]

Always a good show

[@twinsin1974]

Snow Birds are the best pilots in the world!!! You make Canada proud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@SPIDEYKICKER]

You've obviously never seen the Blue Angels then lol

[@trainboyyy4312]

CALEB BERTELS the RCAF is beter than usaf snowbirds are beter

[@KevinKillaKam]

We can agree their both amazing.

[@JamesJoyce12]

Snowbirds fly 9 planes in close formation - Blue Angels fly 4 planes in close formation - Snowbirds are 125% better.

[@cfairfull8030]

JamesJoyce12 Yep. It's amazing to see the Snowbirds fly.

[@patiqs]

Am I the only one that likes the music here?

[@c4lcul4tion]

See! Canada can do some cool shit too! YEAH CANADA!

[@tenderthoughts]

Would you take a Blue Angel pilot for a ride? I saw some Blue Angels demonstration flying & Thunderbirds demonstration flying. Have to admit, they don't have anything on the Snowbirds.

[@cgreeneblue]

I thought I'd be blown away the first time I saw the Blue Angels; It was great, don't get me wrong but it made me appreciate how good the the snow birds really are. Not to mention they're doing their thing in 50 yr old planes! Never seen the Thunderbirds; however, I'm sure they're awesome as well but I got to say the Snow bird pilots and aircraft can hold their own with any other team despite the age and design,

[@mikepurdue7472]

It is true. People are always saying, "upgrade these old planes!" I personally don't think they should. There is no cooler plane than these style. They're old school, they're not meant for blowing things to smithereens.. They are just for pure amazement. Very incredible. And very entertaining. Never replace the CT-114 Tutor planes. I really think the type of plane makes all the difference. These are small. And pretty.

[@angelabacon922]

I love these guy's I live in nanaimo bc in harewood and I see them every August downtown nanaimo waterfront

[@KILLA_DDEE]

1:28 jets going everywhere XD

[@martyniner8893]

That was a tribute to the Battle of Britain

[@truckproam.2218]

I’ve seen the Blue angels, the thunderbirds, and the snowbirds. Granted the Navy and Airforce teams have the cooler aircraft, I enjoyed the snow birds much more. They have that “awe” factor.

[@DadsTimeOutdoors]

Blue Angel's and ThunderBirdsare an "in your face" type show,, loud and fast...... Snowbirds do it slow and gracefully. Definitely agree with the "awe" factor.... they do some of those "bomb bursts" with planes going all directions and from the crowds perspective it is just awesome!..... definitely a favorite of mine!

[@MrGunz2000]

Doug W. I think part of it to is the snowbirds do stuff with that plane that it really was not designed for, the CD-114 was just a trainer to teach how to fly in

[@nitanisstonechild1209]

Im 11 and when I’m 12 im gonna start being an army airforce cadet and join the snow birds! I am scared and excited! I hope I get through

[@Pilot0239]

Good luck buddy!

[@BleedingUranium]

I went through Air Cadets myself, and it was one of the most fun and rewarding things I've been a part of, lots of amazing memories and friends made. :)

[@keegyweegy7803]

“Army airforce cadet” do you mean an air cadet?

[@martyniner8893]

I thought the song fitted quite nicely. Not really my kinda music, but it felt right

[@Sarratt]

thanks for flying

[@cfairfull8030]

See, the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds might be cool, but the Snowbirds are cooler!

[@elvismark6816]

7 it's great to fly with are snowbirds how gracious they fly and to remember each and every Fallen one that has been with the snowbirds it isn't just like the same anymore but we still love them we still fly with them we still support them we still look up to them in the skies that are so clear and shiny it's amazing what we can do in acrobatics and it's so amazing to see them fly above our heads how we cheer for those snowbirds that fly for us Canadians aren't we proud TCB third son of Elvis Presley alive and well in Toronto Ontario Canada daddy came here and 19572 Maple Leaf Gardens for 2 shows and this is all things are since my daddy is gone pretty dull God's gracious snowbirds

[@mrceleb2006]

Highway to the Danger Zone, right into the Danger Zone!

[@elvismark6816]

After the burial of the two who were in an aircraft of the snowbirds one was injured 1 died again they will fly in 3 years can you imagine that our government isn't doing very much

[@MusicByAxton]

Fricking awesome I like the song is there anymore snowbirds fly by with this music ?

[@MusicByAxton]

Hhh

[@mr.nozzles9121]

The music though.. lol

[@stanhohmann]

Although the song does not fit in any way the video is superb

[@markchandy6766]

What’s the manoeuvre at 1:27?

[@mollydwyer5640]

I do believe that is the duck and dive

[@martyniner8893]

It was a tribute to the Battle of Britain

[@britishgurl1760]

❤🌹

[@grantmcphedran4229]

my uncle is snowbird number 7 lol

[@Euzifyy]

The music just doesn't fit at all... Really cool footage though

[@awesomesauce2102]

Euzifyy it all comes down to personal taste :)

[@MusicByAxton]

It fits dumbass

[@pugle1]

I thought the music was a good choice

[@marinamachado7731]

Sean tucker

[@justinbiebervevo_2369]

What's this song Btw can u make a NASCAR racing people are awsome video but u don't need to if your doing a diffrent video

[@sweiland75]

Would have been better with a song by a Canadian musician

[@esteladapper8892]

Awesome video... awful soundtrack. Watched it on mute.

[@cannack]

dont forget to credit match productions, i dont think 15 wing imaging will be happy if you dont

[@awesomesauce2102]

What is 15 Wing Imaging? I'm sorry i've never heard of them.

[@cannack]

Awesome Sauce im not exactly sure what runs match productions but since there videos are made by members of 431 squadron its likely 15 wing would run it, most wings (collection of squadrons) have imaging groups thats job is similar to combat camera in sense they take photos for media etc. just give credit to match productions should be enough 15 wing is the wing which the 431 air demo squadron belongs to, aka the snowbirds

[@awesomesauce2102]

Okay, thank you for bringing this to my attention!

[@MatchProductions]

Thanks +TTT 1! Some of this footage is from +APersonalDevelopment (Arthur Ark) and others. Most however is edited by me in my spare time with the Snowbirds, and technically belongs to the Department of National Defence, particularly all the #TankCam shots. 15 Wing Imaging no longer exists.

[@4thArmoredVet]

Hate the music! I'd rather hear the jet engines

[@MusicByAxton]

Philo Kvetch really?

[@devonopdendries7722]

There's not much to hear when it's first-person... just a consistently whining engine.

[@nitanisstonechild1209]

The music sounds awesome unless u wanna hear some rattling
