After a thorough risk assessment and fleet-wide inspection following the August 2nd incident in Fort St. John, BC, we can confirm that it is safe for the CT-114 Tutor fleet to safely resume flying.
Therefore, the operational pause is now lifted and the team will be heading out to Penticton, BC shortly in order to return the jets to our home base in Moose Jaw, SK.
Preparing an aerobatic demonstration to the required level for public performance requires constant training and regular flying. Having not flown since early August, our team will take the necessary time to re-train and get back in the air. Consequently, we will not be attending the remaining airshows this season.
We will start training for our 2023 season and see you all soon.
