Additional display by the Red Arrows at the Malta International Airshow

The aerobatic team Turkish Stars will not be participating in this year's airshow, the Malta Aviation Society, organizers of the airX Malta International Airshow, said.

The Turkish Stars will be replaced by the RAF Red Arrows for both days of the airshow.

This year's event will feature 3 display teams - the Italian team Frecce Tricolori, the Spanish team Patrulla Aguila and now the world famous RAF Red Arrows, all on both days of the event.

The inclusion of the RAF Red Arrows on Saturday replacing the Turkish Stars, means that this year's edition of the airX Malta International Airshow will feature the largest flying display programme ever.
