Příběh

Blue Phoenix: how the team came to be and what it flies today

A phoenix for the centenary

Blue Phoenix was formed at the beginning of 2012 to mark the centenary of Thai aviation, and English Wikipedia calls it the Royal Thai Air Force’s first formally constituted aerobatic team, heir to an earlier Flying School team disbanded decades before. The phoenix stands for the rebirth of RTAF display flying and for the service’s founders. The team flew its first public display on Children’s Day 2012 at Don Mueang.
