This is the second crash involving the Canadian military's celebrated aerobatic team in less than a year. 

Capt. Kevin Domon-Grenier was flying a jet over the state of Georgia last October, where the Snowbirds were scheduled to perform an air show, when the crash occurred.

He sustained minor injuries after landing in a farmer's field. No one else was hurt.

The Snowbirds have had eight fatalities since their inception in the 1970s: seven pilots and one passenger. This will be the ninth fatality in their history.

The RCAF says that more information will be communicated in the near future.
