Ah, the ones I've almost seen today. They perform at Sanicole airshow and I spend the weekend in a town near the airfield. Drove overthere, but 10 miles from the show it began to rain cats and dogs! Grey skies for miles, traffic jam on top of that, so I turned around and drove home instead. I didn't want to spend 20

I thought I heard the commentator say they were off to Belgium :)

I even wonder if they fly in miserable conditions...

I've seen the post of the reds over NY and so I now wonder (haven't thought about this at all yet): how do you get the yets over to the states? Fly by themself - must be a great opportunity for commercials spotting them flying formation (?) - or are they shipped (would be embarrassing), aircraftcarrier (too expensive),...

seriously, can someone tell me?!  ;)

They do indeed fly them over. Just as the Blues and T-birds do to Hawaii and such.

Nice shots btw. I like how they use different colored smoke!
