EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in aviation history as the RAF Red Arrows, the elite aerobatics team of the Royal Air Force (RAF), break formation with their BAe Systems Hawks at Binbrook Airfield in August 1982. The Red Arrows, formed in 1965, have been thrilling audiences with their aerial displays for over five decades, showcasing the skill and precision of the RAF's pilots. In this image, we see the Red Arrows mid-performance, with their distinctive red, white, and blue smoke trails streaming behind them as they expertly maneuver their Hawks through the sky. The BAe Systems Hawk, a versatile and advanced jet trainer, has been a staple of the Red Arrows fleet since the late 1970s. Its agility and power make it an ideal choice for the demanding aerobatics that the team performs. The photograph was taken at Binbrook Airfield, which was a key RAF station during World War II and continued to serve as a training base for the RAF and Royal Navy until its closure in 1993. The airfield's rich history and picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for this stunning image of the Red Arrows in action. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the RAF Red Arrows and their commitment to showcasing the very best of British aviation. It is a must-have for any aviation enthusiast or history buff, providing a unique glimpse into the past and a reminder of the thrill and excitement of the skies.
