The Red Arrows home page always gives major show dates. You have picked a good weekend (weather permitting )

NB It IS provisional.

Hope you enjoy.

Thanks for the Gen, and sorry for the dual post. The mod brought one of mine in from another forum.

The wx up here in the NW has been awfull today. Was thinking of going down to see the Reds at Morecambe, Sunday. The program time is 12.45, just wondered if anyone knew if anything else was displaying there as well. Should have gone to Southport really. Morecambe really is a poor relation in more ways than one.

Thanks

It was terrible in Southport to!

I was so cold, wet and windy! I only seen all the helicopters come in and land then got forced to leave because everyone else was dying from the cold!

Just got home and 3 aircraft and a chopper go over in formation! Never have the camera to had when its needed

Well, went down to Morecambe, and the WX was awfull. About 15 mins before the programmed arrival of the reds, there was an awful squall. Then from the North they appeared, seemed to have a bit of a formaton fly around to suss things out, and then as the vis became better went into display mode. I'm not sure if it was a truncated display, but thanks guys anyway, definitely worth getting wet for.
