The leader has been on the team for quite a while, he needs to rotate out. Part-time team or not, if they are capable of flying formation aerobatics they can certainly perform a lot more. And my comments reflect off from a number of Sherdils pilots who wanted to push for more, but were told not to.

OVERALL, glad to see them progressing well. Thanks for the video !!!

And here is what a part-time team can also do with K-8s. Watch and enjoy.

As per the leader of team, it's because of security protocols though team has learned new formation maneuvers very recently.
