The Red Arrow flypast which was planned across Glasgow as part of the 100th celebrations of the Royal Air Force was cancelled this afternoon due to the weather.
The jets were supposed to fly across the city at around 3.29pm this afternoon however due to low cloud, the display did not happen.
Crowds which headed to Ayr for the Scottish International Air Show were also hopeful that they would be able to see the Red Arrows grace the skies at around 5.40pm.
The planes have however been forced to land at Prestwick ahead of both events.
Those who missed the intended Glasgow flypast can however head to the Science Centre to see the world's most advanced jet on display.
Visitors will be able to sit in and experience the cockpit of the Lightening stealth combat jet at the RAF100 Aircraft Tour, which opened on Friday.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
