New five-ship jet team will be introduced at the
International Council of Air Shows Convention in December in Las Vegas, Nevada
Lancaster, PA (Thursday, November 4, 2010) – A new jet team is coming to the North American air show circuit for 2011.

With four L-39’s and one T-33 all in the Arctic camouflage paint scheme, the Lancaster, PA based Heavy Metal Jet Team will be an exciting addition to the current demonstration teams available to air shows as well as for private events and sporting event flyovers.
“United Bank Card, Inc is proud to bring the Heavy Metal Jet Team to the North American air show circuit for its first season,” stated Jared Isaacman, founder and CEO of UBC. “We look forward to having a dynamic act for air show organizers and audiences at sites that might not always have a military jet team in attendance.” ...
