Page 3 of 5 As so often the Serbs also showed a strong presence at the CIAF, this year however only with one aircraft in the static display - a newly painted An-26 –and the Super Galeb and J-22 Orao in the air. After the air show in Hungary Brno was the second place for them to present the new special color scheme on the Orao abroad. The "Stars", or "Hvezdy" from Novi Sad completed the participation from this country, though this team has to be more attributed to the civil list.
