I think that its time for the selection process to change with the times...

What we need is to involve the public with the Armed Forces to a greater extent, so why not have the viewers pick the new Reds each year? The 9 contenters could be whittled down each week with the final 3 having a final fly-off live from Cyprus. I am sure that Graham Norton would be ideal to host it! There would have to be a panel of experts to guide us though, so who would you all suggest as the foursome? I will start with the obvious chairman, John Nichols as he so obviously knows everything there is to know about military flying.

I leave the other suggestions to you..... (plus ideas for themes for each programme).

Enjoy!
