15 WING MOOSE JAW — On the afternoon of July 22, the Italian Air Force's aerobatic demonstration team Frecce Tricolori — Italian for The Tricolour Arrows — visited 15 Wing Moose Jaw to refuel during its North American tour celebrating the 100-year anniversary of the Royal Canadian Air Force.
The air demonstration team planned a fly-by over downtown Moose Jaw earlier at 10:30 a.m., but due to hazy conditions and low visibility this feature of the visit had to be cancelled.
The team will continue to perform in 24 additional locations across the continent before concluding the tour on Monday, Aug. 26.
More information including an interview with one of the team's pilots will be featured in an upcoming Moose Jaw Express article early this week.
