Something i havent seen covered to often.
Who are your favorate helicopter display teams?
Mine would have to be the Blue Eagles, from the AAC. Who in my opinion the best chopper display pilots in the world(and not just because they are from my home town of middle wallop):)

their home page.
These guys do things with the lynx and gazelle that perhaps they shouldnt be, and make it look easy. Plus they take part in the mass approach finale of the wallop airshow which contains 50+ helos coming from behind a hill towards the airfield. And at times this display piece has included 90 helicopters. A sight to see indeed.

Agreed Craig, the Blue Eagles rock
The German Army team are pretty damn brilliant as well, I saw them in action last summer, and even I was gawping!

I must admit to disliking helos intensely & consequently have no idea how many display teams there are. When helicopters appear at an air show I usually head straight for the beer tent. I have seen the Blue Eagles several times at Shoreham. Their display always looked impressive to me but I have nothing to compare them with. Dennis Kenyon is by far the finest helicopter display pilot in the UK. IMHO

I've only ever seen the Blue Eagles so like Hagar I can't make a comparison, but I do want to see the Sharks if they still exist (?) and any others that come along
