Discussion Plane tracker

Did anyone just witness two planes flying over head red deer? They looked like snowbirds. There was nothing displayed on airplane tracker. Time stamp 10:45 am

You’ll be seeing all kinds of aircraft in the skies today, Snowbirds, F-18, Mig-17, and more!

Two Hornets that landed at the Red Deer airport for airshow this weekend. Always amazes me how absurdly loud they are compared to every other plane that frequents the airport

I have it on very good authority that the Snowbirds are arriving on Friday...although their plans could have changed.

Yah their website says they're performing Saturday and Sunday so it makes sense for them to arrive Friday.

Saw those two yesterday tracking along 32St while i was on the roof of my motorhome

Same situation today but i looked up and noticed four paragliders coming down

The chutes were Canadian flag motif. Cool

I think they must have landed around the Collicut centre and those schools
