Thought it about time this lot had their own dedicated thread. :D

A place to post pics/vids and chat about all things 'Reds' related...





plus this stunning one from Canada 2008 - beautiful evening display :ymapplause:

Look Mummy.. there's an aeroplane up in the sky.....

I've just seen was a notam issued yesterday for the Red Arrows apparently displaying this Saturday between 16:40 & 17:20 at Brize Norton (Families Day).

I didn't think they'd been given their Display Authorisation yet?
