The Royal Canadian Air Force Heritage Flight formation makes a sneak pass above the crowd as it heads out over Lake Ontario.

An image of four planes in flight against a clear blue sky. The aircraft are moving from the top left of the frame towards the lower right. At the bottom right corner, the brilliant sun is shooting out blinding rays of light. A line of circular and semi-circular lens flares runs across the screen nearly in parallel with the flight path of the planes.

There are green leafy tree branches encroaching on the frame slightly at the top left and more significantly at the top right. The tree on the right continues down the right side of the frame until it partially blocks the sun.

The three planes at the front are the historical RCAF aircraft the Hurricane Hawker, Supermarine Spitfire, (both WWII era) and the CT-114 Tutor (the trainer jet from the 1960s through 2000 and the airframes of The Snowbirds until retirement this year). The larger aircraft following is a CF-18 Hornet which has been the primary fighter aircraft for The Canadian Forces since 1982.

An aerial shot of nine Canadian Forces Snowbirds flying in a precise, tightly packed "Big Wedge" formation in a steep downward dive against a clear blue sky. The sleek red, white, and blue CT-114 Tutor jets point toward the bottom right corner of the frame, emphasizing their dramatic descent. Their iconic paint schemes—featuring bold red wings and bellies, accented by sharp white and blue stripes—pop brilliantly against the bright backdrop. On each tail fin, a large, distinct black number indicates its position in the squadron (including jets 2, 5, 6, and 8 clearly visible), accompanied by a small Canadian maple leaf flag. The jets fly in an exceptionally close, tiered arrangement with less than two meters of separation, moving flawlessly as a single cohesive unit.

When the GPS in your 1940s Beechcraft 18 updates 80 years too late and drops you right in the middle of modern-day Toronto. 😏🤙🍁

A close-up, dramatic telephoto photograph shows a vintage military aircraft flying dangerously close to the main pod of the CN Tower in Toronto, appearing to slice through the structure.The silver twin-engine aircraft, a historic Beechcraft 18 bearing Royal Canadian Air Force roundels, is angled downward as it flies directly in front of the tower's lower observation deck. A thick, realistic plume of smoke or explosion effects appears to erupt right where the airplane’s fuselage meets the concrete structure, creating the illusion of a catastrophic mid-air impact.In the background, the iconic concrete and glass observation levels of the tower are highly detailed under bright daylight, with a few tiny silhouettes of people visible on the EdgeWalk platform above. The overall composition mimics a high-stakes action movie stunt or a perfectly timed optical illusion from an airshow performance.

"Hand flying in hard #IMC is challenging enough, but how about doing it in a nine-ship formation?"

I only had a 35mm prime lens on the camera -- not much can be done about that... but I did somehow manage to catch the Snowbirds flying high above me the other day. End of an era.

One last flyby to buzz the ol' CN Tower.

God speed Lil Red Birds, thanks for the memories.

It is at this point after the CT-133 departs, and the little red jets that could arrived.

And we looped back to the start of this series. The Snowbirds last show in Toronto.

Thanks for the memories little reds, the airshow will not be same without these stalwarts.

The marvelous Snowbird pilots show off the #minimal gaps in their formation.

Very glad we went to see them before they go on hiatus until the new planes arrive.

An image of nine CT-114 Tutor planes flying in a tight diamond formation against a bright blue sky. The rear five planes are leaving a trail of smoke behind them.

Smoke runs vertically up the center of the frame and slightly out of view before the planes turned downwards in their loop. The formation is flying down the left third line of the frame. There are some light puffs of clouds across the bottom of the frame.
