Al Fursan made their first full performance today and I thought they were spectacular. Their smoke is the thickest I have ever seen and instantly there is a love/hate relationship with it as it certainly adds to the display but it lingers forever. Their coordination is superb with one act commencing just as the other is departing, better than any other demonstration team i've ever seen.

The PACAF F-16 broke so we were treated to 2 UAE F-16 displays. Which is good, as the UAE display is well flown while the US one is rather dull. Mi-28 also seems to have broken down as it was scheduled but didn't perform.
