Prior to taking to the air, the Snowbirds hit the runway at the Prince Rupert Regional Airport to show young cadets the planes they fly.
Snowbirds pilots and technicians met with members of the Captain Cook Sea Cadets of Prince Rupert and the 737 (Unicorn) Squadron Air Cadets of Terrace and talked to them about their flight and the work of the forces before beginning final preparations for the 4 p.m. show over the harbour.
Look for more on this story in the Aug. 21 issue of the Northern View and check back tonight for more on the Snowbirds performance.
