Looking back pics from 2014, this year wasn't as exciting. I don't know why Air Canada can't do a loop with their fleets. It will be really close to see a 777 or 787 doing a fly by.

That'd be cool to see, but nothing compare to the real airshows in Europe and Asia. Something like that can be seen in any areas where air force base is near by. When I was traveling in Korea, I saw an A-10 flying along the highway and F-16s were seen frequently.
No F22 this year. I think it only showed up for 1 year back 5 something years ago. At least that's the only time I saw it in TO.
yep.. that was the last time I saw the raptor as well. How it "hovers" still amazes me. I think in the early spring, I'll make a trip somewhere in the US where I can see the raptors perform.
F-22 hovered? You must be confused with the Harrier?

it doesnt really hover, but its close to it. the correct term is controlled stall.
