Current military and civilian aerobatic teams. Does not include aircraft collections whose aircraft display in formation on occasion, such as the Flying Bulls warbirds or Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, or historical re-enactment groups, such as Tora Tora Tora or the Last Dogfight Display Team. Teams are removed from the list after five years of inactivity or being officially disbanded, with the exception of certain de-activated teams which are still considered the official aerobatic team of their organisation, and which are likely to return to active status.
