This year’s line up is set to include at least four national aerobatic teams: Italy’s Frecce Tricolori will display their ten MB-339PANs, the Patrouille Suisse will fly their five F-5E Tiger IIs, Spain’s Patrulla Aguila will bring their seven C-101 Aviojets and the critically-acclaimed Krila Oluje from Croatia will display their six PC-9s.
Other international contributions to the flying display will include the Belgian Air Force F-16AM, Hungarian Air Force JAS-39C Gripen, Slovenian PC-9M Swift, Italian T-346A Master and Czech L-39NG. Civilian aircraft taking part will include the J-35 Draken, Beech 18, Pilatus P-2, Antonov An-2 and Fokker A1.
As the showcase event for the Austrian Air Force, a large number of their assets will take part in the flying display as well. The Eurofighter EF2000 will perform a solo aerobatic display as well as a two-ship mock dogfight and an interception simulation with a C-130K Hercules. There will also be a formation flight of three DA-40s with four PC-7s.
Energy drink manufacturer Red Bull will be showing off the bulk of their collection of immaculate warbirds and aerobatic aircraft, many of which are based in Salzburg, Austria. This will include the P-38 Lightning, F4U-4 Corsair, B-25 Mitchell, T-28B Trojan, P-51D Mustang, Alpha Jet, Douglas DC-6B, AH-1 Cobra and Bristol Sycamore. Many of these aircraft will take part in mixed-type displays, which usually include one-of-a-kind formation aerobatics. A highlight of the Flying Bulls’ contribution will be the world debut of their new Red Bull Aerobatic Triple performance, which will combine their Bolkow Bo105, Edge 540 and PT-17 Stearman with skydivers from the Red Bull Skydive Team and HSV Red Bull Salzburg in a single, tightly-choreographed performance.
