The Al Fursan jets are expected to perform over the Corniche in Abu Dhabi between 4pm to 5pm on Wednesday, 2 December, according to a report in The National.
The performance is in honour of the UAE 49th National Day celebrations and is part of many activities planned across the Emirate of Abu Dhabi including a host of firework displays across the capital.
The UAE’s The National newspaper also reported that the aerobatic team “… will be accompanied by the UAE’s latest Mirage 2000 and F-16 jets”.
The report also said that “the displays start with all seven aircraft flying in formation, trailing coloured smoke, before they perform tricks, including a solo performance”.
The Al Fursan, which means The Knights in English, are the United Arab Emirates Air Force aerobatic display team.
