Ah yes March ARB, always the best show in California, in my perspective that is, glad March managed to retain them for next year, look forward to the team performing at March ARB, Huntington Beach, & Edwards AFB next year :)

Lt. Col. Justin Elliott, commander of the 59th Test and Evaluation Squadron at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, will become Thunderbird 1, the squadron's commander and lead pilot next year. As the two-fold duty title implies, Elliott will command a force of more than 120 enlisted personnel and 11 commissioned officers assigned to the team, along with leading all of the demonstration flights.

The schedule posted on their Instagram page has Abbotsford listed (Facebook as well). Suspect it was just a typo.

An article about the Thunderbirds winter training with this little nugget:
After the inaugural training trip the team will continue on to train with the U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, at Naval Air Facility (NAF) El Centro, California, to exchange best practices and lessons learned in preparation for the 2022 show season.
