Is anyone else getting nothing when you click on the "Invited countries" link?

Nope.

Hmm possibly good reasons for their non-appearances but still disappointing! Surprised with the Americans!

Did any UK or US aircraft turn up for static?

And the Turkish Stars and Bialo Czerwone Iskry are attending too, are they not?

Red Arrows
Turkish Stars
Bialo Czerwone Iskry
French AF Rafale

I was even more delighted with the fact it was LX-N 90443, I've been trying to catch that for 5 years! Anyway here's some I managed ...

"10 aerobatic teams have already accepted the invitation, and another six are determined within a week or two before the end of March," - he said. So I wonder which 10 they are? I guess we can count the Knights, Swifts, Team Rus, Russian Falcons and the Frecce. It wouldn't surprise me if the Patrou...

At least there's a bit more proof that something is happening that weekend!

Do you have a link to the 2012 Frecce calendar by any chance?
