Please note, these are not my aircraft and I take no credit for their design, I just felt I needed to put together something in light of the recent incident. All the credit goes to the creator and if someone wishes to upvote this, I ask that you upvote the original creator first.
This post, is in response to the incident that happened two days ago when one of the RCAF’s Snowbirds crashed while on a cross country tour to boost the population’s moral in light of the pandemic. Captain Jenn Casey died after the ejection while the pilot, Captain Richard MacDougall is still in the hospital.
This comes less than a month after an RCAF CH-148 on deployment with the HMCS Fredricton crashed with six people onboard. I put the aircraft together in a flight to hopefully, respectfully bring some light to both of the recent incidents.
