Apparently the Red Arrows have displayed in 53 countries, I can barely think of 50 countries, is there a list of the 53 somewhere?

The UN has 193 member states, I wonder who the other 200-odd are ?

Yes - they still go off to Cyprus each Spring (well, they were certainly there last year).
Living only 10 miles from Scampton I miss them when they are gone!
PS Don't forget the Scampton Airshow in September this year.
They certainly weren't in Cyprus last year, they trained in Greece.

Unfortunately they weren't able to display in Thailand last year due to the observance of the mourning period of the late King.

They've also done Cyprus and Greece, as already mentioned, along with Gibraltar and Malta so that's up to 41.
