 Royal Jordanian Falcons - Definition 

The Royal Jordanian Falcons are the aerobatic demonstration team of the Royal Jordanian Airline and the official national aerobatic team of Jordan. The team was formed on the orders of King Hussein of Jordan in November 7, 1978 in order to be ambassadors for Jordan and to demonstrate Jordan's aviation expertise. Originally a team of 3 Pitts S-2A Specials, the team changed to 4 Walter Extra EA300Ss in 1992. The Falcons are unique in that while the pilots are drawn from the Royal Jordanian Air Force, the team is sponsored by the national airline which owns the aircraft. The team is headquartered at Amman International Airport.
