SWISS participation

Post by EGGX TED » Sun Jan 21, 2018 10:15 pm

OOOPs.......it was the schedule for the HORNET TEAM not the F5s.......sorry if it got folk excited! It actually says " the Swiss Hornet display team" so I suppose its just the one F18 or will it be the F18 and a hell that does a dual display?

Where has that information come from? Can't find anything on the Patrouille Suisse social media pages.

Team doesn't mean more than one aircraft. There's the RAF Typhoon Display Team, the RAF Tutor Display Team, etc.

Totally agree with what you say re the word "team" however as I said in my post, it may be a singleton or, as I saw in Payerne 2014, the SWISS HORNET TEAM consisted of a HORNET and a COUGAR displaying TOGETHER. Could we be so lucky? Likely not.

So does this mean we will have both a Swiss Hornet and a Cougar Helicopter displaying or appearing at Ayr Low Green in September? Mind you I guess it will be the F-18 Hornet only though.

No, it'll be the F-18 Solo.
