Headline: RAW VIDEO: Red Arrows Mark 60th Anniversary

Caption: Britain’s Red Arrows are celebrating 60 seasons of dynamic displays in 2024. To mark the anniversary, the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team officially launched their diamond anniversary campaign – including unveiling special artwork that will be carried on each of the team’s distinctive Hawk jets. A new nine-aircraft show is part of plans for the milestone season, featuring manoeuvres not seen for a generation in the Red Arrows’ display routine, which changes each year. They have also announced today a five-week overseas tour by the team, staged later this summer, to help mark the centennial of the Royal Canadian Air Force. Squadron Leader Jon Bond, who will be the Team Leader – flying as Red 1 – for the first time in 2024, said: “The whole of the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team is focussed on celebrating 60 display seasons in the best way possible – performing the Red Arrows’ trademark Diamond Nine formation in our diamond year, for families to enjoy across the United Kingdom and further afield.”
