| Canada's Air Force, Aircraft: Canadair F-86 Sabre Golden Hawk (359 words) |
 | Pilots for the Golden Hawks flight demonstration team were selected from the Sabre Operational Training Unit at CFB Chatham and each had had operational experience with the Air Division. |
| However, whereas the Golden Hawks were able to extend their existance past the single year initialy envisioned for them and continue their performances until, having performed 317 shows ending in Montreal, Quebec in 1963, they were finally disbanded, '353 was written off on 16 November, 1960. |
| This event was taken as a "golden" oppurtunity to form a Golden Anniversary aerobatic team for one year which would be called the Golden Hawks. |
