The Canadian Forces Snowbirds will be at 19 Wing Comox for their annual spring training, from now through to May 12th.

Residents can expect to see and hear the iconic Tutor jets as pilots practice their formations and aerobatics in the vicinity of Comox Valley and over the Strait of Georgia.

Members of the public heading to Air Force Beach to watch the Snowbirds, are being asked to mind the speed limits and use designated parking spots.

Residents are also being asked to avoid parking on the road if the parking lot is full.

The DND suggests viewing from Glacier Gardens Arena or the Heritage Air Park.

The Snowbirds flying schedule will be posted on the Canadian Forces Snowbirds Facebook page, as well as the 19 Wing Totem Times Facebook page.
