Yep, from Regina which is next door to Moose Jaw *edit* YES Moose Jaw is truly a city name in Saskatchewan, Canada http://www.citymoosejaw.com/ *end edit* where the SnowBirds are located. As far as i know they are the only aerobatic team that can all take off together and land in formation together. VERY IMPRESSIVE to see. And this year after taking a few years off do to 9/11 and very high insurance rates, they are back at the Moose Jaw Air Show! Can't wait to see em.
