1976 if I remember correctly. Seemed to need an awful lot of runway for takeoff.
The pilot of the BD5J (smallest aircraft in the display) also flew the Airbus A300 (largest). He wanted to fly the A300 and land and hop staight into the BD5 but the Flying Control Committee wouldn't let him and required at least 30 min between displays.
