What to expect from a Red Arrows display
The Red Arrows' aerobatic display changes each year, according to their website, but there are three types the team leader can elect to fly – full, rolling or flat.
A display is split into two halves - the first half consists of synchronised, formation aerobatics, followed by a more dynamic second half.
Manoeuvres which featured in 2023 shows included the Vixen Break, Tornado and Reds 6 Thorugh 9 pass (examples of which can be seen on the Red Arrows website).
