In the second appearance of the Russian aerobatics team Strizhi, all five aircraft joined. After a few formations 05 blue returned, while the others continued an impressive display with close flying formations exceptionally close too and over(!) the public. This kind of flying is not allowed in western Europe.
Other flying highlights included the Serbia and Montenegro AF J-22 Orao, G-4 Super Galeb and the rarely seen G-2 Galeb, now private, but still in full air force colors.
Portugal send there two demo Alpha jets. This was the second appearance of this team abroad (the first one was at Zeltweg)
