Like last years RIAT three major display teams showed up during both days; The Red Arrows, Patrouille Suisse and Patrulla Aguila. Also present were the RN Black Cats and AAC Blue Eagles and last but not least; the Royal Jordanian Falcons.

It's becoming a well know sight; the Red Arrows in formation with one or more aircraft which are related to any kind of jubilee or memorial. This time they performed a special fly by with the red tailed VC-10, from No 101 Squadron based at RAF Brize Norton. It was too bad this formation was only performed at the Sunday.

After this fly by the Red Arrows showed us they still are one of the best demonstration teams in the world. Their show is very popular by the general public.

The Patrouille Suisse are always successful because they aren't flying with trainers, but with larger fighter aircraft, the F-5E Tiger II. This year they also performed two formations with the Pilatus PC-21 prototype, also from Switzerland.

The last large demonstration team was the Patrulla Aguila from Spain. They are not well known at the general public but their show can meet the show of the Patrouille de France for example. At the Sunday they showed us a formation fly by with the Spanish Eurofighter Typhoon.

The Royal Navy Black Cats and Army Air Corps Blue Eagles are a well known sight at shows in Great Britain. The Black Cats are outstanding in synchronized formation flying. And the Blue Eagles are famous for the Lynx which shows the loop.
