Sad to see how air forces world wide are cutting back their display teams because of budget problems. Over here in South Africa the Silver Falcons (flying since 1946) were also grounded at the end of 2012 because of funding. They started out with DH Vampires then moved on to Texan T-6 Harvards, Aermacchi MB-326 Impalas and until their grounding, the Pilatus PC-7 MkII's. Their support aircraft, a beautifully restored DC-3 TP, was also destroyed after crashing in the Drakensberg mountain range during their 2012 season, killing all onboard. Both images here to follow:
