[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 2535966, member: 13624"] I've seen both of the American teams many times, even hung out with the pilots after the show a couple of times, but for my money, I still think the Snowbirds are at the top of the list. Our guys are flying front-line fighters with thrust-to-weight ratios exceeding unity; they can literally accelerate straight up. The Snowbirds are flying trainers, which takes considerably more skill in energy management, and a larger formation at that. Then again, I still miss the Red Baron Stearman Squadron; their nickname was the "dancing elephants." [/QUOTE]
