The Czech Flying Bulls Aerobatics Team traces its history back to 1960 when the Box Tréner team was formed at Chrudim with Zlin Z-26 aircraft. It was re-established with Z-50s in 1989 and became a Red Bull team in 2001. Jiří Saller, whose mount is seen here, joined in 1990 and left in 2015. He died of illness two years later, 64 years old.
