If I may refer to the original posting on this topic, the Reds over flew my house yesterday, the 3rd. June ( I was at work and missed it ; bloody typical!! ).
However, my wife said they were followed shortly afterwards by another 7 ship of different aircraft. Anyone know who these were??

I won't forget this moment: it's 1968 and 20 of us eager cadets are studying thermodynamics in Trenchard Hall at Cranwell. The airfield is south of the Hall but the classroom is north-facing. The Reds in their Gnats are due for their annual check display in front of the AOC and whooooosh, they arrive. Spotty flt lt lecturer says 'I expect you'd all like to go outside and watch the Red Arrows'. Twenty 'Yes, pleases' are accompanied by the sound of 20 chairs being pushed back. SFLL: 'Well, you can't!'
And we didn't!
I know your name and I remember your face, SFLL, and one day.......one day......
