The Reds are the best in the world (can't believe I just said that) because of the hours of dedicated practice they get and having dedicated jets - so no competition between sqn training, QRA, ops, display flying, etc.
I cannot believe you said that either......they are darn good....but "best"?

As good as any without a doubt....but first place gets a bit hard to claim as there is a lot of difference between the Top Place Teams.

When the Angels and T-Birds were flying Phantoms....now that was impressive! The wee tiny things the Reds sport about in....well...well....they are cute aren't they!
