Can anyone else find the Reds on Google Earth.
No1 shot - Blackpool Airport parked up on a runway
No 2 shot - Biggin Hill on the runway
Anymore Google spotters out there ?

Couple at Scampton, unsurprisingly. Well spotted though!

Not all of them are on the runway at Biggin Hill. A game of spot the 'Red' to be played!:8

Last year they displayed a team of seven. Plus Red 10 and Winco equals nine.

Got me looking and wondering if there is one in the air. Couldn't find one, so I had a look at LHR to see if there are any in the air around there.

Don't know if its still there, but the BBMF Lancaster was visible (just) flying over Huntingdon, following the railway north.

One of the Reds is definitely still in the air at Biggin Hill. Must have gone around and is positioning downwind. You just need to look harder!:E

Thanks Rab-k...I couldn't get the Alpha Jet out of my mind for some reason, and I generally drive past it too fast. At least it was Red though...:ok:

Try 51.35359N 0.00488E. I don't think it's the wrong thing.
You are right, you can see it's shadow too. But I was looking at this one (won't give game away)
