They do. Even a special painted one. I think the last time they were here was at Volkel in 2013 if I remember well.

Anyone happen to be able to confirm whether
indeed the Slovak Air Force is to send a Mig-29 and a Let L-410 for the static display :?:

Some changes made to the official site:
- Both Slovak Air Force Mig 29 and Let L-410 have disappeared from the list
- Spanish Typhoon changed to flying.
- A Norwegian C130 is added to the static
- Norwegian F16 is changed to a Danish one.

Indeed, the Black Cats with one or two Lynxes.

I do wonder what will happen when Wildcat has entirely replaced Lynx in the Royal Navy.

Apparently the flying envelope of Wildcat will not be expanded/tested
as much as was done with Lynx a long long time ago. :|

The Black Cats are using the Wildcats during their displays.

"The team are pleased to announce that the Lead Pilot for 2016 is Lt Cdr David Lilly. Having successfully lead the team in 2015 and 2009 he will remain for this summer and is looking forward to developing the Wildcat routine."
