Flight squads

A group of fighter jets flies at lightning fast speed.

The planes move in tight formations, performing daring moves.

Some even fly upside-down. Crowds watch in awe as pilots push the limits of what planes can do.

These are the U.S. military flight demonstration squadrons. Take a look inside 'White Lightning Nonfiction', a hi-lo nonfiction series for students in the middle grades.

Mature, high-interest topics pull in readers and engage them with interesting information; full-colour photographs and illustrations; detailed graphic elements including charts, tables, and infographics; and fascinating fact boxes.

A 20-word glossary is included for vocabulary support.
