One of the nice things about not having ads or any kind of revenue from my site is that I no longer get the diamond-pressure bum-hole puckering feeling I used to get when I had a hosting company and a site would go down. I don’t even have monitoring set up and it’s freeing.
But go kick an LLM in the dick for stealing so much of my shit that you can’t read it except in some inaccessible pay-for-wrongness shitty chat venue.

And there you have it, the old "Tutor" planes of the Snowbirds will be officially retired after this flying season.
The squadron will be replaced by 2030 according to Minister McGuinty with the CT-157 Siskin II.
It is a turbo-prob plane now moving into place as the RCAF's primary training aircraft.
It is a Swiss-made Pilatus PC-21 aircraft. Last week, the first CT-157 achieved "factory acceptance”, so the timing is no coincidence I'm sure. Looks like these will be the new snowbirds in 2030.
Full CT-157 Siskin II info here:
