Storyline: Aerobatic teams have carried out rehearsals for the AERO Asia show, which opens Thursday in south China's Zhuhai City. At the Zhuhai International Airshow Center, the four-day show brings together nearly 400 companies from 22 countries and regions. China's retired air force instructors from the Hongxing (Red Star) aerobatic team carried out a rehearsal on Wednesday with four CJ-6 trainer aircraft. "The weather is good today though the wind was a bit strong. The maneuvers were completed with solid quality, and our four-aircraft performances and formations met our expectations," said a pilot from the team named Liu Hui. South African AERO aerobatic team will debut at the event. "It was awesome at the early morning, so the light is quite restrictive, still very dark in the morning, but it was good fun. We hope it'll be a good show and we look forward to performing in front of the whole of China and Zhuhai," said South African aerobatic aviator Patrick Davidson. The show also features five indoor exhibition halls and more than 50 forums and conferences. Shotlist: Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province, south China - Nov 26, 2025: 1.
