[Top_Gun]

they look like these based on the one profile shot I saw, but I can't be sure.

Nope, rounded tail fin and not fully retractable undercarriage.

I think now its a YAK-52 (after a hint on the other forum):

Finally, through making visible EC-IAN on the red machine, have them identified:

Patrulla Jacob 52, performing today 1530 Local in a 50yrs commemoration of the 801st SAR here in Malloca, in Sencelles. This yesterday was the test performance.

They were founded 1997 but needed to practice until 2003 before giving their first public performance, the fifth (solo) was included after 2004.

Juan José Barta Hernández (Madrid) Right Wing
Emilio Ranz Serrano (Madrid) Left Wing
Gonzalo O’Kelly Pérez (Cuenca) Formation Dog (last in the rhombus formation)
Manuel Rey Cordero "Coco" (Galicia) Solo Performer (flies the plane to its limits)

Show:

* 1.- Initial pass in rhombus or diamant, steep climb to 3000ft
* 2.- Performance of the Solo
* 3.- Maple Leaf
* 4.- Formation Looping
* 5.- Formation Lazy Eights
* 6.- Formation Tunnel (Barrel Roll)
* 7.- Formation Loopings
* 8.- Formation Changes from Rhombus to Arrow
* 9.- Formation Changes from Arrow to Closed

Nanchang CJ6

More than a licence built Yak18A relabelled as the CJ5, the CJ6 can be regarded as a proper type of trainer

The wings were revised to have prominent dihedral, but, like the Soviet Yak-18A redesign, the CJ-6 retained the 145hp M-11ER radial engine with similarly disappointing results when it first flew in 1958. Revised power, in the form of an Ivchenko AI-14R engine, didn't solve the problem, which called for further redesign of the aircraft. Finally, in 1961, an improved CJ-6A gained approval and was produced beginning in 1962 using a 285hp Quzhou Huosai HS6A engine. More than 1,800 CJ-6As were produced, including those exported to nations such as Albania, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Tanzania and Zambia under the designation BT-6. An armed version, the CJ-6B, was produced between 1964 and 1966, equipped with a 300-hp HS-6D engine, according to some sources.

This holds true for the displayed photo from TopGun (with the YAK he obviously was on the right track), but not for the pics of the plains I saw, those definitely are the Jacob52 YAK 52s (rounded - not rectangular - tail fin, engine hood wider than fuselage), talke do their manager this morning:
