The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows, is one of the world's skillful and popular display teams.
Representing the speed, agility and precision of the RAF, the team is the public face of the service.
They assist in recruiting to the Armed Forces and act as ambassadors for the UK.
Flying distinctive Hawk jets, the team is made up of pilots, engineers and essential support staff with frontline, operational experience.
Over the years, they have wowed fans at Farnborough Air Show and Wings and Wheels and they return to the skies this summer to impress once more.
This, the Red Arrows’ 54th season is also the Royal Air Force’s centenary year.
With their trademark Diamond Nine shape and combination of close formations and precision flying, the Red Arrows have been displaying since 1965.
All Red Arrows display pilots have flown operationally, in frontline aircraft such as the advanced Typhoon, and helped the Royal Air Force to secure the skies every day of the year.
