The highlight of the 2009 Abbotsford International Airshow for most had to have been Hawk One and the Centennial Heritage Flight commemmorating 100 years of powered flight in Canada. The display consisted of formation passes of the 2009 display CF-18 Hornet with an F-86 painted up in the colours of the Golden Hawks and a CT-114 Tutor painted in the colours of the Golden Centennaires. Hawk One also provided a solo display including two passes with the Snowbirds. Very memorable. Unfortunately, clouds were around pretty much all weekend making photography difficult and departure day Monday was a wash out. It was still, as always, a fantastic lineup...one of the best in North America.
