The thing I admire most about the Red Arrows is they fly much older jets than other display teams which don’t have all the modern State-of-the-Art computers that help balance and fly the aircraft. It’s pure flying skills, which is why they’re so admired worldwide.

Love watching the Red Arrows. I served for 17 years in the Royal Air Force, working all over the world. Keep up the great videos.

Thank you ladies for being so generous in your support for our military. My boy at 23 is an officer in the RAF and my heart bursts with pride every time I see the RAF in action. I saw the Thunderbirds a few years ago and they were fantastic, you really do need to see the Red Arrows live. Long live the bond between our nations !

I was driving through the Peak District a couple of weeks ago and on the Ladybower Bridge I was waiting at the lights and this almighty roar happened.I sxxx myself thinking the Bridge was collapsing. Later realised it was an RAF low fly training zone, so awesome

I have seen them many times over the years as a HUGE airshow fan. They never put on anything less than an amazing show, one memory that particularly stands out is when they flew in led by a Spitfire. The Spit was going as fast as it possibly could and the jets were going so slow they were trying not to fall out the sky but it looked so amazing its still one of my favourite moments in life

I lived in Blackpool and they use practice there alot, we use to sit on our garage roof to watch them, they would come so low we would wave 👋 and the pilots would wave 👋 back at us

As a Brit I am incredibly proud of the Red Arrows, incredible skills. Had the pleasure of seeing the Blue Angels too - amazing!!!

Lovely ladies , we had the Red Arrows displaying over Torbay , South Devon , a couple of weeks ago .Great video girls .🇬🇧

I live in Portsmouth UK and they fly over my house every so often, you can hear them from miles away and we all run out to the garden to see them fly over it really gives you goosebumps! I’m so glad I found your channel ❤ I saw the coverage you did of her majesty’s funeral so much respect.

Proudest moment was back in 2018 or 2019 when the Blue Angels pilots and the Canadian, Snowbirds, etc... all said during a display that the Red Arrows were the best. It's subjective and not important whose the best, but to hear them say it. Amazing.

I get to photograph these guys two or three times a year in the Summer. They are great in our local airshow at Torbay which has a unique horseshoe-shaped bay, meaning they can be seen by the three towns that make up the English Riviera. You can hear the crew over the loudspeaker and the commands. The spiral formation was the 'vortex'. It's always a thrill to see them.

Happy Father's Day!! Finally! The Red Arrows! Such fun to watch & mass respect for their skill!! We hope you enjoy this episode. Drop us a Like 👍🏻 if you enjoy our content. It's the easiest way to support our channel. Thanks for watching ❤️

I have seen them all my life, intentionally and not. When i was growing up, in Gloucestershire, England, they used to be based in the County.. so they were frequently seen in the sky practising - Plus I hae been to many airshows and seen them over where I now live in Suffolk. They hold a special place in the hearts of us British.

My cousin is in the RAF and part of the Red Arrows. He was in the middle ‘blue’ jet over Buckingham Palace at the Jubilee. So so proud ❤

I had one of the greatest times of my life, sat on the back of a cruise ship off Cyprus with a beer watching these guys practising. Great memory.

We saw the Red Arrow over Jubilee weekend in an Airshow over Torbay in Devon. They were remarkable as always. Glad you enjoyed seeing them. Also Happy 97th birthday to Nanny Violet xx

We are so proud of the Red Arrows !

Back at the Clacton airshow this year. They always leave us with a Cupid's heart 💓

I read an article about the low level training the RAF do to simulate keeping under enemy radar. When asked "do you not worry about flying into electricity lines" the pilot matter of factly replied" oh no, we'll be way below them".

you two need some fred dibnah in your lives. you will love him.

I was at an airshow on Blackpool beach watching different planes coming and going along the beach and knowing the Red Arrows were on next, I wondered why I couldn't see them approaching. Then WOW, they flew in from over the town, so low that we didn't hear their approach until they were on top of us. What an entrance.

_British aerobatic teams go back a century to the first stunt squadrons coming into existence after the First World War_ _An RAF aerial pageant took place in 1920, while 1925 saw a six-night long show called “London Defended” at the British Empire Exhibition. This performance featured Sopwith Snipes painted red flying amidst blank ammunition and pyrotechnics_

35 years ago I was in the back garden of my parents house filling an inflatable swimming pool for my 1 yer old nephew when a red arrow flew upside down 30 feet above the house. I could see the pilot give a thumbs up and he disappeared over the coast to join up with the rest for the finale of a display off Felixstowe Suffolk England. I was awe inspired but my nephew burst into tears.

I live a few miles from where the Red Arrows are stationed. Watch them practice daily when they’re home and not touring. They’re so special x

Many years ago, I worked with a guy who had been in the RAF in a photographic unit, which was based with the Red Arrows. He had photos of them doing training flights. Some of them were taken from the aircraft as they went under the Menai Straights Bridge in the standard diamond nine formation. To see how crazy that is, go look at a picture of the Menai Straights bridge.

They flew directly over my house about a week before the Jubilee flypast. Wonderful site!

These guys are out of this world 😳 gives me chills everytime I watch them.

I was on holiday in Paignton, Devon, stood in the kitchen of the cottage we had rented with a sea view out over Torbay, when noticed the Distinct Red of the red jets ,flying over the sea .shouted my kids and ran out into the garden ,and had a fantastic sight of the red arrows ,performing their Display over Torquay. It made a lovely day on the beach ⛱. Into a perfect day 👌. One not expected. Just one I'll forget or my kids .alas no photos, pre camera phone days.

As an ex pilot, nothing makes me prouder to be British than the magestic Red Arrows. They are such an amazing ambassador to our country. I've been lucky enough to see them performing a number of times. I have also visited the United States a few times and I am blown away by the professionalism of your armed forces. Keep up the great work ladies, I am new to your channel and just subscribed 😁

The other thing that gives me chills at air shows is the battle of britain memorial flight

They fly over my house every year on the way back from the local air show, you can feel the sound as they roar past, everyone comes out to watch them.

They used to do a big airshow in Biggin Hill, an aerodrome in the south east of England and we used to get all the planes for the show fly over my garden. we still occasionally see the Red Arrows fly to Eastbourne for that airshow and they fly everywhere in close formation. It's always such a pleasure to see them. One of the things that really upsets me is that the defence office has cut back massively on the big military shows. My favourite childhood memories was going to the Royal Tournament in Earls Court and getting to see and talk to the service people (mostly men in those days). As a kid it was truly a wonderful experience. I had a paratrooper costume that was my pride and joy when I was about 7 and having real Paras come up to me and salute me before sorting out my beret and uniform, teaching me to stand to attention and things like that... just a kids dream come true. Not to mention it was such a vital connection between our service people and the public which can only be a bad thing to have lost in the long run.... Oops that turned into a trip down memory lane and a little rant. But yeah, the red arrows are something to make sure you see live if you haven't. I'm hoping to see the blue angels when I'm next over the pond!

I have seen the Red Arrows display many times ever since I was a small boy. They are the source of great national pride. Their aeroplanes are British Aerospace Hawks, when they were formed in the mid sixties they used a tiny jet trainer called a Folland Gnat, they were even prettier. I was at the RIAT in 2018 and saw that display. I was at the TT races in the mid 80's and saw them perform over Douglas Bay. I was stood on a big hill just north of the town (now granted city status by HMQ) and was looking down at most of the show, it gave a very different perspective. Their current base (which is due to close very soon and the Arrows will be moved) is about twenty-five miles as the crow flies from my home, so occasionally they fly over in transit. We could see them practicing in the winter from the roof of the Fire Training School roof when I worked there. I am very glad that you enjoyed seeing them so much. About fifteen years ago the Blue Angels were touring the European air displays and I was lucky enough to see them at the show at RAF Waddington near Lincoln. They were very, very good, but their display style is different partially because their aeroplanes are so much bigger and more powerful. Many happy returns Nanny Violet! xx It would be worth your time having a quick look at the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, they are a major attraction at UK air displays.

My dad was a flight instructor in the RAF that trained people how to fly those planes. He was asked to be in the Red Arrows but turned the position down as I'd just been born and he thought that the risk was too high.

We can never forget that the US have the angels, They are truly fantastic, the question of who is best is like asking what’s the difference black and white. Both are totally okay and different And so brilliant at what they do. 👍

I worked on a Power Station in Lincolnshire only a few miles from R A. F. Scampton where the Red Arrows used to be based. My office had huge plate glass windows and I had a virtually private display every Spring as they practiced. Amazing on beautiful clear blue sky days

I'm obsessed with the R.A.F and have seen these hundreds of times ... never get boring... beautiful...

Also check out the RAF Battle of Britain Flight

Hi again Similar to Kathryn, I grew up near Lincoln were there was a number of RAF bases and we had Vulcans, Tornadoes, Warthogs and....the red arrows regularly fly over our house. We lived in the countryside and the RAF used to fly so low over the house. One second it was birds tweeting away and then a Tornado would scare the devil out of you as it screamed passed. There was like a woosh noise afterwards too due to the disturbed air in the wake of the jet. I can remember once, my dad and I were putting a new roof on the barn and the red arrows started to practise their show in above our field. We just sat on the scaffolding, opened the flask of tea and watched them, it was brilliant, best memory ever. They also did the head on manover, where two plans head straight at each other and then turn side on and just miss each other, right in front of where we where sat, I thought that I could have touched them they were that close. My dad's passed away now but thanks to the red arrows I have one of the best father and son memories ever.

Many years ago, before altitude restrictions were tightened, the Red Arrows were performing over Plymouth, UK. I was walking along the street (Trelawney Road) and one of the planes flew overhead discharging red smoke. The street was full of smoke. I have told people this and they don't believe me but I swear it's true. On another occasion I was on a train going through Dawlish, Devon. One of the planes briefly flew parallel to the train. I could quite clearly see the pilot.

97? Wow! Happy Birthday Nanny Violet.

Happy Birthday Nanny Violet, we the UK wish you a very happy and joyous day form across the pond! ❤

Lucky enough to be near by the base they fly from. Often see them up in the air practising. RAF Memorial flight is another great sight. Lancaster bomber, a Spitfire and Hurricane fighters

Makes me proud to be British. 🙂

Our beloved Queen stopped the government from getting rid of the Red Arrows. I’ve watched these since I was very young I’m now 65. They use to do a show near where I live look Finningley RAF it’s now a airport. Also the Valcan look that up.

I was cleaning the windows on my balcony with my sons. We heard them returning to there base after a show We live on the side of a hill and the were about roof hight. Coming straight for us. We started to wave as they flew over they put on white smoke and We're waving back. They shook the windows . They are stunning to look at and the sound you never forget.

I've lost count of the number of times I have seen the Red Arrows over the years and they never fail to thrill. The skill, dedication and meticulous attention to detail displayed by these pilots and those who support them are second to none. I have a colleague whose husband, recently retired from the service, was a pilot on the team. He now teaches aerobatics to civilians. I only found out when his young son blurted it out to me. He laughingly shrugged it off, telling his son that he should stop mentioning it to everybody, as if it were nothing to write home about. As is the case, those who do the most incredible things are often the least likely to want to blow their own trumpet. I hope that you will be able to see the Red Arrows 'live' some time. Best wishes to you both from the UK.

Just found your uploads and they are great, i live in Scotland on a hill in Greenock overlooking the mouth of the river Clyde, so about 10 years ago The Tall Ships where in town and the Red Arrows were putting on a show which we watched from our front door level with the jets and it was awesome as were the tall ships, about 60 tall full sail ships from around the world fab!.Keep up the good work and awe the best fra Scotland

We have an air show, late summer usually with the Blue Angels, Thunderbirds and our own Snowbirds! Our Aeroplanes are older, but still are great in the aerobatic sense!

I first saw the Red Arrows in about '67 since then I have seen them many, many times and the magic and pride never diminishes, you still have some great moves to see yet.

I work close to the Red Arrows base and we see them practicing most days , always stop work to take a look , we go awwwwwww when they do the love heart lol .

I saw them over Torbay about 30 years ago and they were spectacular. By the way their aircraft are Hawk Trainers which were introduced in 1980 🇬🇧

Amazing! love this reaction, i've been lucky enough to see the Red Arrows at Airshows along the beach in Norfolk a few times & they are always fantastic displays. Happy 97th birthday to Nanny Violet as well x

I've seen the Arrows many times as a kid but the last time I saw a heart drawn in the sky was a Typhoon pilot down in the Falklands Islands. I was attached to 16 RA (sphinx) rent (Rapier Air defence unit) as a medic, they were having an exercise on the islands with the typhoon pilots playing the enemy. At the end of the exercise the typhoon pilot gave the ground units a the love heart before he returned to base (I didn't have my smart phone just a cheap and nasty pay as you talk without a camera - remember those phone :0) ). Truly awesome! great video ladies.

You're right ladies, that it never gets old seeing their displays. My dad when he was serving in the RAF told me that I was fascinated by them when in my pram (I'm in my 50's now!) when the RAF station we were at had an airshow, then years later when I was in the RAF I felt privileged to have seen them close up during airshows I worked at. Thank you for a fab video!

I have been lucky to have seen these multiple times starting as a child and every time they are amazing!

It's good that we share the same flag colours, so the Red Arrows don't have to change the smoke dye when they tour the USA 😁

When i first started work, we used to deliver Laundy to RAF West Malling now no more and a very low key base by them, while there we were told The Red Arrows would be rehearsing overhead before going on to another display. West Malling was not their home base. We were able to walk out to the runway to watch, and were surprised when they dived in low and just skimmed at break neck speed over our heads, was the first time i saw them and this was back in the 60's. We were also visiting when the Beatles were there filming Magical Mystery Tour. Will never forget

I'm lucky to live a few miles away from the Red Arrows' base. We frequently see them practising over the city and we never tire of seeing them ❤

Had work pal years ago whose husband was a Red Arrow. He sadly in an accident in rehearsal. He was a hero and he saw action too. Xxx

I live in Clacton on Sea. We get our own air show here for bank holiday August. We get the red arrows here the thurs and fri. They’re amazing.

The aircraft are BAE Hawks and your navy uses them as Goshawks. And out of interest, the Reds forefathers , the "Black Arrows, still hold the record for a 22 aircraft loop....that was spectacular. ..

The Red Arrows flew over my house this evening on their way to the Wales National Airshow in Swansea for a display. Earlier in the day they had performed a display and flypast at the British Formula 1 Grand Prix at Silverstone. That's one advantage of being a small country geographically. They can do multiple displays at different venues on the same day.

I have been on a transatlantic flight when the Red Arrows overtook us, flying in "Goosewing" formation. Awesome!

Hi Debbie & Natasha If you like military jets low to the ground and at speed, I think you will get a buzz out of videos on the 'Mach Loop' in Wales 😀 I always enjoyed watching the Red Arrows at the Biggin Hill air show. Keep the videos coming All the best Ray

I live in Shrewsbury, and RAF Cosford is about ten miles away. Cosford is home to the RAF museum and the Museum of the Cold War. Every year when the Cosford Air Show is on, I get the Red Arrows about twenty feet above my house.

I see them practice most days. Quite lucky to see them doing their thing, whilst doing the dishes. ☺

The Red Arrows used to fly over our house en route to their training areas,always loved seeing them.Love your videos, and your reactions to stuff that we grew up with and seem "normal" to us.You should check out a guy called Fred Dibnah,sadly no longer with us,but an absolute legend. He was a Steeplejack by trade,and one video shows him climbing a factory chimney without any harness or safety gear,all 200 feet of it.Keep the videos coming ladies!

I’ve seen the Red Arrows several times and it is an amazing experience

Many years ago I was sailing ⛵ on the South Coast of England from Pool harbour when we heard this noise coming from behind us, when we turned to look there were the Red Arrows coming straight at us literally just above the sea as we were right inline with the centre of the beach as the Arrows made their way in to do a surprise entry into their routine over the beach and as they approached they just lifted over my mast so as to not sink us with their jet wash then dropped again to start their display. You both said how much you liked the smoke but let me assure you that when you are directly under it the smell of burning air fuel mixed with the chemicals for the colours is horendous. But we did have great front row seats.

I live just south of Lincoln and see them practicing all the time. Next year, they move to RAF Waddington, which is my way so they will be practicing over our village. My friend’s husband was a red arrow until last month. It’s a very cool job but she banned him from talking about practices as he kept telling her about mistakes and near miss situations!

When I was a kid, we went to a lot of airshows (Dad had been in the RAF, as had his father and brother). Most of them featured the Red Arrows and it was always an amazing sight. This brings back so many happy memories.

You should look up the Black Arrows (111 Squadron). They flew Hawker Hunters, considerably larger aircraft. They finished with a 22 aircraft “bomb burst”. Unforgettable Regarding tight formations I have some programmes from the Hendon Air Shows my father went to in the 1930’s. They contain photos of the squadrons flying in formation tied together with ribbons.

Happy birthday Nanny Violet. ❤️🇬🇧❤️X GBGB GBA. 👍🇺🇸

i see these guys at least once a week overhead! more in spring. The joys of living Within 5 RAF bases no more then an hour drive away . I honestly dont realise how lucky i am tbh!

Great video. Red Arrows so fly the flag for Great Britain. Happy birthday nanny violet 🎉🎂

I’m fortunate to see them very frequently, they’re stationed about 30 minutes from my home. Always spectacular.

Favourite memory sitting on the top of the airport wall as they came over to land wheels down just above our heads

When the red arrows attend the Air show in Blackpool, I live along the coast and I park myself in the attic and as they reform over sea they fly right past my house. I've nearly pitched out of the window jumping around! They're so close I can see the pilots unbelievable x

Always best to see them in person. When they do their split and fly off in different directions the fun is working out where they will fly back in from and it's often when they do the low pass cross in front of the crowd.

hi lovely ladiesI live 2 miles from there base they are incredible see them regularly as they fly over my house it’s great when I’m about say in my car and I see the reds practicing. Remember once on Valentine’s Day they were out practicing and they did a heart shape with an arrow going through it so lovely so glad u find them amazing the people of Lincolnshire are so proud of the red arrows. Sending lots of love to you both xx

I worked with these in the RAF in the early eighties (sort of), I was an RAF fireman, and we had to be able to shut the aircraft down and make the weapons and ejector seat safe. They looked modern then, but, unlike me, dont seem to have aged at all. I agree they are great looking planes, I always thought they looked like flying dolphins.

We're so proud of the Red arrows here in the 🇬🇧 I've seen the red arrows so many times, they are amazing when they do fly pasts for the Queen and the Royal family, there shows are fantastic

They have done nearly 5000 displays in 57 countries. I live a few miles away from their base in RAF Scampton and sometimes see them returning over our town.

Omg!!! I just had to tell you!!! I watched your video this morning and loved every second. Later on I had to make a long journey for my work tomorrow in the north of England. I had to take a diversion as a large section of the motorway was closed due to an accident, and there were so many traffic lights I was getting bored! Then I was waiting at yet another red light and you’ll never believe it, but the Red Arrow flew across almost over the top of me! It was so loud!!!! That was one red traffic light I was glad to be stuck at! I can just imagine what you ladies would have been like!! 😮

I liked it because I like Debbie as instructed. She is super cute and smart. I like you both and hope you continue

I'd love to see your reaction to the beautiful Vulcan XH558 'The Spirit Of Great Britain' doing a taxi, take off and display. Truly a spectacle to behold and she sounds so, so good when she howls

i live near the red arrows base scampton lincolnshire uk they train nearly every day see them regular and it never gets boring

Loved seeing your enjoyment of the Red Arrows. I am lucky to have seen them many, many times here in the UK over the years. I never tire of their displays.

I hope you enjoy making these episodes I certainly enjoy watching them, thank you ladies. Best wishes from the U.K.

The Red Arrows are the best ever Display Team Ever

Lucky enough to live on n next village across from RAF Scampton so often get the pleasure of seeing them practice.

I'm lucky enough to live 12 - 15 miles away from where they are now based at Waddington in Lincolnshire. Often see them flying in the skies nearby practicing, theyr'e just awesome so proud they're based in my County !!

Never can get enough of the Red Arrows. They sometimes base themselves at my local airport for an annual show. Often pass over my workplace. Always get excited like a big kid

when I was 16, the original newly formed Red arrows used to be at my local aerodrome. I, with my friends, used to watch them through the fencing . Wonderful nostalgia in modern day filming. Thanks 🇬🇧

Hi! Still loving your videos! I am a bit of a aero nut. My dad used to design engines for fighter planes, and I lived in MD for a year & lived with one of the guys who flew Airforce 1. He invited my Dad over to stay & took us to an event at Andrews. He said the Blue Angels are "nothing" compared to the Red Arrows. Maybe it is one of those things, when you know, you know!? The skill difference is incomparable. American's are the best at many things, but Britain kicks ass at more things than the USA will ever be willing to give us credit for. I love you both. Your channel is ace. Thank you! x

Per Ardua Ad Astra, Thanks for supporting the RAF, feeling the love!

They used to do a fab wine glass where they shot off in every direction. Before we moved they did a fantastic display at a race track just 100 yes up the road so we had a personal display over our garden!

Just love you chicks...you are always so happy and humorous! Bob

I first like to congratulate nana violet on a amazing birthday 💐 I live near York in West Yorkshire and next Saturday the red arrows are on the coast at Scarborough apparently they have some new movements in the show this year I hope the weather stays fine like you say there is no best all those pilots are amazing. 👍
