The People's Choice: Naming the Snowbirds
Canadaβs iconic Snowbirds weren't named by the military. After their 1971 season, a contest was held at a CFB Moose Jaw elementary school, with 'Snowbirds' as the winning entry. The team, officially 431 Air Demonstration Squadron, began as a temporary base flying club, but public adoration secured their permanent status as a national icon. #Canada #Snowbirds #RCAF #Aviation #AirShow π¨π¦
