Why couldn't the Snowbirds switch to a newer aircraft?

Best Answer

Because it would be prohibitively expensive. The Snowbirds perform about 70 airshows every year. They practice intensively for the remainder of the year. The Tutor is a remarkably fuel -efficient aircraft, but fuel costs are still high. Aircraft maintenance costs are high too, and would be astronomical with newer aircraft.
