Frecce Tricolori

From Freepedia

Frecce Tricolori (Three-coloured Arrows) is the precision aerobatic demonstration team for the Italian Air Force. The team flies the Aermacchi MB-339-A/PAN, a two-seat fighter-trainer and anti-tank craft capable of roughly 898 km/h at sea level. Unfortunately, many immediately associate the team's name with the Ramstein airshow disaster, one of the worst airshow crashes in history. On August 28, 1988, two of the Frecce Tricolori's planes collided in mid-air during a performance over Ramstein airbase, sending the flaming debris from one aircraft into the crowd and killing seventy people.
