Sadly, the town of Kamloops, BC and Nova Scotia have suffered yet another loss. A Royal Canadian Air Force Snowbird acrobatic jet carrying two RCAF pilots had crashed, injuring one, killing the other. 

CTV: “One member of the Canadian Forces Snowbirds has died and another has sustained serious injuries after their plane crashed in Kamloops, B.C., while on a cross-country tour. CTV News has confirmed that Capt. Jennifer Casey has been identified as the Snowbirds team member killed in the crash. [font=CTVSans-Regular, arial, sans-serif]Kamloops RCMP confirmed Sunday afternoon that they received a report that a Snowbird plane had crashed into a residence on Glenview Avenue, at about 11:42 a.m. local time. BC Emergency Health Services said multiple paramedics responded to the scene and one person was transported to hospital. EHS could not provide any information about that patient's condition.”[/font]

[font=CTVSans-Regular, arial, sans-serif]Law Enforcement says it will be a long time before a conclusion can come, as to what happened. At this time, it is believed to be the result of an electrical failure. [/font]

[font=CTVSans-Regular, arial, sans-serif]My thoughts and prayers go to the fallen pilot and everyone affected by what was supposed to bring a little joy to Canadians, during these hard times. Rest In Peace. [/font]
