When Happybunny was about 4 or 5 we saw a red arrows display at the tall ships event in Greenock, a few days later she was a school and told the teacher she was going to be a surgeon and on her day off fly with the red arrows, she was obviously impressed!!!

They flew over the church when we got married, just as the pics were being taken outside!
How cool was that!

my mum and dad bought their old house in lincolnshire, partly cos, when the battle of britain memorial flight took off, they flew in formation over their house ........ was a wonderful sight

Ha Lynda I was just thinking a similar thing, at our old house just outside Bedford we were under the same flight path and wow was that impressive the noise was absolutely indescribable

Look out for them in Newcastle this Sunday - they always do a flypast for The Great North Run. I'm not running this year as I had a main tendon let go last year but my run is deffered to next year

They always do a show in August in Dawlish and they fly over my nieces house, this year it was my great nieces third birthday on the same day and someone said ' wow how did you manage to book them for her birthday'.They look fantastic.

We used to get the Red Arrows here nearly every year, there used to be an airshow at Barton Airport near us which is a really tiny airfield, but we used to get Vulcan's the Red Arrows, jump jets & all sorts flying in. They don't have it anymore because of cost & health & safety issues so I think you're really lucky Lottie Dolly to see them by chance!

I prefer the sound of the merlin engine - think Spitfire wooooooo but no doubting the Dead Sparrows are pretty special - oh and did you know we have two Kiwi pilots in the squadron at the moment.....my Kiwi pal was totally blown away and thrilled by that when she came here for Air (Families) Day

The Arrows are based just a couple of miles from me, so I see them practising on a regular basis. Even in the 16 years I've lived here though, I've never lost that 'oooh!' feeling! We also see the BBMF flying over quite often, which is even more magical (and a bit surreal!).

Battle of Britain Ball has to be my favourite favourite of all the functions we attend, it is goosebumpy stuff - oh how I love the Lanc

When we saw the red arrows in torquay in the summer my daughter decided that when she is old enough she wants tp join the raf so she can fly one !!!
