So. If the Arrows are flying them, then they are not all being retired........
The BBNM is flying Spitfires, Hurricanes and a Lancaster, but they're not in RAF operational service.

But it will be the first time an RAF display team won't be using an aircraft in use by the RAF for operations or for training in over a hundred years (1920, Sopwith Snipes of the Central Flying School).
