Anybody seen them?

They were at my local air show today. They put on a good show. I wasn't able to get any good pictures with my cell phone but I did stay after the show to meet them.

They're really nice guys who seemed to like the fact that I was an "air cadet"

And Canadian accents never fail to amuse me.

I recommend going to see them. They fly some sort of trainer. I want to say it's the CT-114 "Tutor"....might have gotten the designation wrong. They're cool, strange looking little planes.

Seem to be more focused on precision than speed. I know the Blue Angels do everything really really fast...the Snowbirds do more or less the same stuff...but there's 9 of them and they are very very good at it.
