What makes you guys think it will be so hard.

I think as the reason is as Robert said the limitation of on-line connection. Acrobatics in general takes a lot of planning and skill. Acrobatics as a team take even more planning, skill and communication. I’m not implying that our pilots aren’t skilled at flying. But another thing is, and I’m sorry if I’m acting like a grumpy old man. But what would be the point of having this team. I served in the Danish Air Force for 10 year (not as a pilot) and have over that period of time been involved in a few air shows. If we where a real airline I could see the point, we could promoted our airline that way. But I can’t see the value of having a team just to do some acrobatics on-line. I mean there must be more to it, then just having a team that did acrobatics on-line. But of course you can always try to sell the idea to the senior management.  
And I’m pretty sure that if we where to have such a team, the plan that would used would be from our fleet. I’m rather sure that Maarten and Gergely wouldn’t allow a F-15 or a MIG 29 to enter our fleet, not even for this purpose

Ive done acrodatics in a Baron 58 and it works fine. Dont know if I should really say this but I did quite a few loop the loops to pass the time on my UK tour ;D
Didnt longern my flight time :)

Maybe instead of a team, you could start with a duo or trio and gain some experience before growing to a team.

An original aircraft could be a Fokker 50 or Embraer 170. But if you really want to do Split-S's, Immelmanns and looping then I would suggest the new MB339 'Frecce Tricolori' (seen on simviation.com)
Could someone make a sensational livery for it ?

Also you could organize an airshow online, where normal air traffic is diverted to other airports and where EHM-pilots show their skills in an orderly fashion. (crashes are forbidden :-)

For doing stunts I would use the Su 26. At the Sunderland intl airshow, a guy called Will Curtis was flying one and it was capable of 12g positive and 7g negative. That guy most be on somthing:]

EHM-1358 Tim:
