Is that for real?

The Red Arrows are great but that knocks them into a cocked hat, surely it is photo shopped!!

Except for image 12 where it says "two gliders" and shows three smoke trails.

Although I note in this afternoon's Toronto Star that Chunk of Gardiner falls, closes Lakeshore west Blvd.
"Lakeshore Blvd. West is closed just east of Bathurst St. after a chunk of the Gardiner Expressway fell. Roughly a two-metre section of concrete from the bottom of the Gardiner fell onto the guardrail at the right-hand lane. The chunk broke apart and some pieces fell onto the roadway. The guardrail was dented but no cars were hit. By 2 p.m., city crews had cleared debris off the road but two lanes were blocked by police cars and maintenance vehicles. Roads crews were on the scene for cleanup, but it is unclear when the two lanes will reopen."

I note with more than passing interest that the "Gardiner" is an elevated roadway that runs above the ground-level Lakeshore Boulevard, and that when pieces of the elevated roadway fall off they don't close the elevated roadway!

Looking at that image there are 2 gliders, with smoke coming off the tips of the wings. the 2 wings in the center of the picture have their smoke entwined.
