Brazilian Aerial Demonstration Squadron, a photo from Minas Gerais, Southeast

Photographer's Note

The Aerial Demonstration Squadron (Portuguese: Air Demonstration Squadron), popularly known the Smoke Squadron (Portuguese: Smoke Squadron) is the Brazilian Air Force's air demonstration squadron. Its first display was on 14 May 1952 over Copacabana beach.
The EDA was disbanded in 1977 but reformed on 8 December 1983 using Neiva T-25 Universal piston-powered aircraft, soon to be Replaced by the then-new Embraer EMB 312 Tucano turboprop trainer.

The Aerial Demonstration Squadron does more than show the professionalism of the members of the Brazilian Air Force during its flybys. Patriotism, courtesy and attention in dealing with the public are some of the many values cultivated by all members of the Escadrille. Through lectures for public and private institutions and visits to charities, the smoke of the military seeks to motivate and exalt all its values, and bring a little joy and optimism to all those with whom they interact.

After making his demonstration in the city of Juiz de Fora (MG) on August 13 to more than 50 thousand people, the Smoke group complements its shares with several other public relations activities for the city, totaling interaction with more than seven philanthropic and educational entities juizforanas.

Bonjour Ricardo,

Les couleurs de ces superbes avions ressortent vraiment tr鑣 bien sous ce ciel jaune de fin de journ閑. Un tr鑣 bel alignement qui donne une magnifique ligne de fuite.

Amicalement

Hi Ricardo
this is another one of those photos/subjects which we don't see too often.

love the colors of the planes, and the ambiance of the skyline, there's even a hint of peach colours on the pavement too.

lovely colors all around
cheers

Hola Ricardo.
Muy original y bonita composicion, con esta perspectiva de todos estos aviones de acrobacia, aparcados en una perfecta linea en el aerodromo, sus vivos colores aumentan el cromatismo de la imagen, que ya tiene su color en el rosado cielo y el marron de la pista.
Que tengas un buen d韆.
Saludos muy cordiales.
Luis.

Bonjour Ricardo,

A superb sunset on the tarmac with wonderful repetition of the aircraft and fantastic warm cold color contrasts between the orange and blue. Tfs!

Ola Ricardo,
Beautiful capture of the planes in juxtaposition on the tarmac.
This is the first time I learn about this plane: The EMB 312 Tucano turboprop trainer.
Golden sky added nice texture to the whole.
Bom novo dia,
Ike
