Flying Colours (Patrulla Águila) - a photo on Flickriver

Spyros Martinis ©
Patrulla Águila (Spanish for "Eagle Patrol"), formed 4 July 1985, is the aerobatic demonstration team of the Spanish Air Force, based at San Javier airbase near La Manga, in the Murcia region of Spain. Flying 7 Casa C-101 Aviojets, they are the only team to use yellow smoke and are also known for their formation landings.
The patrol is composed of seven pilots (plus a chief in land and extensive support personnel) who occupy seven demarcations of different names. These are:

Leader or Eagle 1: in the standard formation of the patrol, the leader occupies the head, the other extending to the sides and behind him. The leader directs the whole the patrol in flight.
Points right and left or Eagles 2 and 3 : the points go behind and on both sides of the leader. Each has a mission to provide stability to the corresponding wing.
Dog or Eagle 4: the' 'dog' 'flies behind the leader and of the points, forming the four one diamond.
Solo or Eagle 5: the one in charge of the maneuvers that put more to the limit the characteristics of the aircraft.
Pair right and left or Eagles 6 and 7 make up the sides of the formation. They are responsible for the maneuvers that require more precision and coordination.
