Royal Danish Air Force Confirmed with the Baby Blue Display Team of 4 x T-17 Supporters.

Now if we could only get a Another Fest jet display and some Fast jets in static that would top it off Nicely.

Not my cup of tea in the slightest but that is a very rare catch. Well done VLAD team!

Never seen them before so couldn't really help you but I would suspect they would bring either a Challenger or Hercules.

they will most likely have a back up T-17 Supporter with them at Yeovilton.

Air day today released it latest newsletter and the Quote below is Quite Intriguing.
Air Day will also be hosting potentially four aerobatic display teams. The Royal Jordanian Falcons will now be joined by The Yakovlevs, a Yak-52/50 4-ship display team in striking silver and red star colours based in nearby Henstridge. Last week we received confirmation that the Royal Danish Air Force Baby Blue Display Team will be attending Air Day. We are delighted to be welcoming them particularly as they rarely appear at overseas airshows. There is also a possibility of another foreign military aerobatic team attending Air Day.


Who could the Display Team Be?.

I know the Red Devils, Belgian Display Team are very keen in getting into more UK airshows so could be a possibility.

PARTICIPATION UPDATE:
Belgian Air Force Red Devils Display Team
SIAI Marchetti SF260 x 4 - Flying

A DEVILISH DISPLAY!
The Belgian Air Force's Diables Rouges (Red Devils) join the many other display teams scheduled to fly at Air Day. Active in their current form since 2011, the Red Devils fly four high-performance SF260 turboprop-powered trainers. They won the Best Military Display Team award at last weekend's Royal Danish Air Force Karup Airshow. Their neat and graceful display of formation figures, crossovers and solo aerobatics will be seen for the first time at Air Day. Other national military aerobatic teams confirmed for the flying display include the Royal Danish Air Force Baby Blue Display Team and the Royal Jordanian Falcons.
