The Toronto Air Show was cancelled on Sunday due to poor weather conditions.
The notifications began to pop up on social media from CIAS Toronto shortly after 12 p.m. saying that performances would go on as long as they meet “minimum safety requirements.” They warned at the time that the schedule could be fluid. Over the next few hours performances were either cancelled or put on hold amid cloudy and wet weather.
“It wasn’t great,” he said. “I was fortunate enough that I got to go up in the air. I went up first to go do a weather check.” Fowler said that some of the safety margins for the other aircraft are larger, which meant that he was the only one who was able to fly as of 1:30 p.m.
