Me too - I am a little leery of helo teams. Saw the Grasshoppers a few times... impressive. Would have liked to see the Hinds perform.

'Vintage Pair'.

We should not forget the RAF's 'Vintage Pair'.

http://www.rafmuseum.org.uk/gloster-meteor-t7.htm

Have not found a vid yet... no mention of the team on Wikipedia and scarce elsewhere on the web as far as Google can find... or not.

MW:

'Just found this on another web site.

From 'Lost to service' by Colin Cummings,

'25-May-1986 XH304 Vampire T11, CFS, RAF Mildenhall.

Mid air collision with Meteor T7 WA669 whilst flying in formation at the annual air show. The Meteor and Vampire were attempting a line astern barrel roll to the left, but because it could not match the Meteor's rate of roll, the Vampire bacame displaced. The Vampire moved forward and collided with the Meteor. The pilot, Squadron Leader David Marchant and a member of the ground maintainance crew who was flying as a passenger; Sgt A Ball, were able to eject.'

The crew of the Meteor were Flight Lieutenant Andrew James Potter, age 38, pilot, and Corporal Kevin Turner, age 24, Ground support tradesman.

[Lucky for us we were not at that show that day that year. But I remember seeing footage of it on the TV news... as always, no coverage except when there's a crash.]

Reformed in civilian hands:

'Orliks' from Poland

Here is a team I would love to see - the wonderful 'Orliks' from Poland.

Not sure I liked turboprop teams until I saw this video.

Submitted three versions - all the same clip - at low, med and 'high' res for a demo and for low non-b/b folks.

Should not forget those impeccable Aerostars with their Yaks. One of the few civilian teams, watch them on Google Video:
