The Golden Hawks were a Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) aerobatic flying team established in 1959 to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the RCAF and the "Golden" 50th anniversary of Canadian flight, which began with the AEA Silver Dart in 1909. The team patch (Badge Crest) was proudly displayed by all members of the team. Initially, a six-plane team was established for only one year with the Canadair Sabre 5 but were so popular after their 1959 show season that the team was re-established until 1964 and flew 317 shows.
The Golden Hawks pioneered a two-aircraft head-on coordinated solo program which virtually every military team since has adopted in various ways. They also invented the Card 5 Maneuver, where five aircraft fly in a card formation, two up front, one in the middle, two in the back. They also created the Coordinated Two Aircraft 360, where two aircraft fly in opposite directions at low level at about 350 miles per hour (560 km/h), at about seven gravities, in a horizontal circle and pass each other on both sides of the circle. The legacy of the Golden Hawks lives on with the Canadian Forces Snowbirds.
