Why have the Reds cancelled ??
Hi,
The Red Arrows were due to 'flypast' Naphill Fete (near RAF High Wycombe) on Saturday morning, (9th June 2007) but the sign on the village green says that they have cancelled.
Any idea why?
Disappointed of High Wycombe.

I'm just a mere civvy, but there are lots of RAF types still living and working around the site - even at the weekends.
I'm sorry a simple question, why have they cancelled, even after it was Notamed has been an excuse for people to have a 'pop' at the suits at what is presumably, in your world, Head Office??

Was it because of this sign?:
"Naphill Village Fete. Come along and see the Red Arrows Flypast! (will be held indoors if wet)"

The latest from Naphill is that the Reds will be here tomorrow (Saturday 9th) at 09:34, which I'm eagerly anticipating.
While I'm here, thanks to all those who have put on some terrific displays over RAF High Wycombe in the last few years (BBMF and the 80-strong fleet we had last year). Those of us on the flight-path really appreciate it

I remember the reds cancelled an appearance at Culdrose in the early '90s. The reason - they were told they would be staying in the Wardroom and not the Greenlawns Hotel. Reason enough for me ??????????

Why is that on this forum whenever some asks a legitimate question and the words Red and Arrows get mentioned that some idiot has to have a pop?
Did you apply and not get selected?

BBMF fighters just flown by my place about 12 miles north of Naphill and they were coming from that direction. The sound of a Merlin always makes me spill the G&T or in this case Pimms!
Well done chaps - and if that was you Spokes about 400 yards further right next time please.
