Where? Brno, Czech Republic
When? 10-11/09/2005

Crowd

Announced as the highlight of the show has been the appearance of the Strizhi (Swifts), which has already been the case sometimes in recent years, but this time they finally managed it to bring them to Brno and the 5-ship of MiG-29 flew their elegant display routine on both show days.

Wings over Houston Airshow

(Reading time: 4 - 8 minutes)

Wings over Houston 2017 was an awesome airshow! Plenty of warbirds, a Messerschmitt Me 262, jets from the Vietnam era, amongst them the venerable F-4D Phantom II, made up for a great program. This great mix on show at Ellington Airport in the South of Houston was enriched by aerobatic acts and the USAF Thunderbirds. With a 34-year long history the airshow is still very much alive and kicking!
