The Moose Jaw Nine from Air & Space Magazine
I’m in the left seat of Snowbird No. 4’s aircraft as the team practices an arrowhead loop formation over a flat January landscape the color of faded wheat near its home base of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. On the pullup and during the float over the top, I keep an eye on Snowbird No. 8, Captain Mark LaVerdiere, the outer wing man, three airplanes away on my left. He maintains his position but there’s a bit more movement than I’m seeing from the aircraft to my immediate left. As we come down the back side, with the call “Power coming up” from the lead aircraft, I try to picture what it must be like keeping LaVerdiere’s outer wing position in a nine-aircraft line-abreast formation. Like the end of a crack-the-whip.
I’m flying with Captain Dave Boudreau, who is the first line-astern position with Canada’s 431 Air Demonstration Squadron, better known as the Snowbirds. It’s the first half of practice season, and the team hasn’t yet worked up to its nine-airplane formations. But when it does, airshow announcers could well alert the crowds with the Monty Python introduction: “And now for something completely different.”
The Snowbirds don’t even try to mimic their U.S. counterparts, the Navy’s Blue Angels and the Air Force’s Thunderbirds, who fly top-of-the-line jet fighters. There are no high subsonic afterburner-blasting passes; Snowbird performances aren’t about blinding speed and chest-thumping military might. They’re designed, quite simply, to keep the crowds entranced with their formation routines.....

Red Arrows to zoom in for a Peace of the action - Kent News
The Red Arrows will swoop from the skies this summer after confirming their first ever performance at the annual War and Peace Show.
The RAF aerobatics team will perform a full display at the show in July at The Hop Farm in Paddock Wood.
Rex Cadman, organiser of the show, which is now in its 28th year, said: ""I am absolutely thrilled that the Red Arrows are coming here.
"We have been increasing airborne displays year on year. The Spirit of Kent Spitfire is always a show stopper, as is the Lancaster bomber display.
"At last year's Show a Messerschmitt flew across the Hop Farm for the first time since the Second World War.
"But the Red Arrows are the icing on the cake, especially in the year when we are commemorating the Battle of Britain."
