october is your last chance to see the red arrows this year

The home of the Red Arrows,aptly nicknamed ‘The Reds,’ have had a fair few homes over the years.

They were originally based at  RAF Little Rissington in Gloucestershire,then the Central Flying School,before moving to what is now Cotswolds Airport in 1966.

The arrows were moved once again to RAF Scampton,in Lincolnshire,in 1983.

But officials gave them the boot in late 2022 after 40 years at RAF Scampton.

Instead,the arrows were moved to RAF Waddington.

Scampton was to be turned into a site to house asylum seekers. Though,the plans were scrapped last year.
