Hair-raising stunts: Aerobatic teams amaze public at Chinese air show (VIDEO)

An ambitious Chinese airshow has entered its third day, with the world's top aerobatic pilots showcasing dazzling stunts in the sky. The Sunday show featured Lithuania’s ANBO trio and the UK-based Yakovlevs.

The Zhengzhou Air Show kicked off in Shangjie Airport in central China’s Henan Province on Friday and will continue until Tuesday. Organizers say the event aims to be “Asia's largest and most diversified general aviation event.”

The ANBO trio from Lithuania flew at breath-taking speeds of over 300kph, AP reported. The six-aircraft Yakovlevs team stunned the audience by performing big looping and vertical climb maneuvers.
