Sky Wing: how the team came to be and what it flies today

A team on the basic trainer

Sky Wing was formed in 2011 by the PLA Air Force Aviation University in Changchun, Jilin Province. Together with Red Falcon, it ended the August 1st team’s fifty years as the PLAAF’s only display team. It flies the Nanchang CJ-6, a two-seat piston-engined basic trainer used for the first stage of military flying training. With the two school teams added, the PLAAF had three display teams for the first time.
