That would have been cool to see. I don't think I've ever seen a foreign demo team IRL.

i have some mixed feelings about the Frecce Tricolori , can't forget what happened at Ramstein AB on the 28 August 1988 , the disaster took in total 70 lives (67 spectators and 3 Frecce Tricolori pilots)

They were at Bagotville Air Show a month ago along with Snowbirds and they did a flyover over Ottawa on Canada day. 

Tragedy at Air Shows in the past are making safer one's today...
