Indonesia’s Jupiter Aerobatic Team and Neptunus Aerobatic Team are slated to thrill participants with their flying displays at this year’s Bali International Airshow.
Along with a solo flight display from Australia’s F-35A Lightning II, the aerobatic teams are among those promising to entertain guests throughout the event’s run from 18th to 21st September.
Pilots will be showcasing their precision, skill, and artistry in their captivating aerial displays.
A masterful display of flying
The Jupiter Aerobatic Team, part of the Indonesian Air Force, will fly six KT-1B Wongbee aircraft. These planes, painted in vibrant red and white, are equipped with white smoke generators and will perform complex manoeuvres across the Bali skies.
The KT-1B Wongbee, with a wingspan of 10.6 metres and a top speed of 350 knots (648.2 km/h), will allow the team to demonstrate their exceptional aerobatic skills, honed through years of international performances at events like the 2023 Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition (LIMA) and the 2024 Singapore Airshow.
Joining them is the Neptunus Aerobatic Team from the Indonesian Naval Aviation Center, flying six Bonanza G36 light aircraft. Due to the different characteristics of aircraft, the manoeuvres and acrobatics formations performed by the Neptune team differed from those performed by the Jupiter team of the Air Force.
However, the Neptunus team will deliver equally exciting and entertaining performances. The Bonanza G36, with a wingspan of 10.12 metres and a top speed of 205 knots (463km/h), has been a crowd favourite at events such as the “Hari Ulang Tahun (HUT) Penerbangan Angkatan Laut (TNI AL) 2016”, the 2017 Indonesia Naval Base Open Day, and the 2018 Multilateral Naval Exercise Komodo (MNEK) in Lombok Island. The latter event had 25 countries participating from Asia, Africa, Europe, and America.
