And it boggles the mind that ANY military would put their best pilots in aircraft that should have been retired decades ago WITHOUT ZERO-ZERO ejection seats.
I think that's going to change soon when they start flying Super Hornets.
No idea what Block F-16s the Thunderbirds are using.
“Does any other nation’s military aerobatic team use aircraft as antiquated as the Tutor?”
Here is a listing of most of the exhibit teams around the world, some active and some not. A few still use prop aircraft many first designed in the 60’s. I’m not sure which is the oldest as many of the teams have either changed or updated the frame or power even if they continue to use the older craft.
