The Victors Formation Team

In 2004, a new Belgian display team saw the light of day with our friends of Vliegclub Ursel, in the Flemish region Meetjesland, using regular Piper PA-28 touring aircraft. They have been regular participants at our show for many years and we continue to see the team grow with each passing year, adding new elements. Make sure you don’t miss this renowned Belgian display team at the International Sanicole Airshow on 13 & 14 September 2025 at Hechtel-Eksel: Formation Team The Victors. 

The team have been regular guests at the International Sanicole Airshow since their inception, but they have also ventured across Europe to take part in airshows as far away as Finland, Poland and Slovakia. Their success is not only due to the unusual composition flying sports aircraft, but also because the high degree of difficulty of their display, beautifully choreographing their display to overcome the low power their aircraft produce. Their tight formations have rightfully won admiration all over Europe.

Two of the current team members were also in the original team back in 2004, but younger members have joined the team since then. They are also regular guests at World War 2 commemorations, and they are patrons of the Workgroup B67, which aims to keep the memory of the wartime Ursel airfield alive. It would be impossible to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the allied liberation without them!

Since 2024, their aircraft also sport new modern colours. Make sure you catch their pass with the biggest Belgian flag in the world when they fly over our airfield!
