The Swedish Air Force will show TP84 Hercules! When talking about military transport flights, most Swedes tend to instinctively think of Hercules, the four-engine workhorse with cargo ramp at the rear of the aircraft body. And in fact, the Lockheed Martin C-130, the officially name of this aircraft type, has a special relationship with the Swedish Armed Forces. Sweden has flown Hercules since 1965 – longer than any other European country. The Swedish Air Force first leased the Lockheed Martin C-130E Hercules, early March 1965, and then received the Swedish military designation TP 84 Hercules.

Only Friday

Except Saturdays and Sunday's airshow Johan Gustafsson flies on Friday evening airshow with his SZD-59 ACRO. Johan has become famous around the world for his outstanding glider aerobatic airshows.

TEAM 50 is a Swedish civil aviation group founded in 2012, consisting of the airshow pilots Niklas Eriksson, Tord Grönvik, Curt Cronerud, Alf Ingesson-Thoor and Tommy Hansson. The group flies SAAB Safir, both individually and in formation 2, 3, or 4-group. The airplane SAAB Safir was used by the Swedish Air Force as a school, training, transport and reconnaissance airplane between 1946 and 1993. During the cold war, the Swedish Air Force grew a lot, and the need for more pilots required new demands on a new school airplane. In 1952, Bücker Bü 181 Bestmann was replaced with SAAB Safir as a school airplane and received the military designation SK 50. The aircraft are historically painted and labeled as they once appeared when used in the Swedish Air Force. The name "TEAM 50" is a combination of the military designation SK 50 and "team" - "TEAM 50".
