RED ARROWS GET DISPLAY APPROVAL
AFTER months of training, the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team today successfully completed an annual assessment, known as Public Display Authority (PDA). Pictured here are the pilots 1-11 once PDa has been given.
Attaining the status, which involves detailed scrutiny of activity both in the air and on the ground, means the Red Arrows are deemed to have a show that is safe, presentable and representing the best of British. Shown here, the official group photographs taken at RAF Scampton after they received the PDA.
Officially known as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows showcase the excellence of the RAF and represent the United Kingdom both at home and overseas. The team consists of 11 pilots, nine of whom fly in the display, and more than 100 support personnel and technicians. Each of the pilots has previous fast-jet, operational experience flying the Tornado, Typhoon or Harrier, enabling the RAF to secure the skies and protect the nation and its interests, 365-days a year. One of the worldÕs premier aerobatic teams, the Red Arrows had completed nearly 5,000 displays, in 57 countries, by the beginning of 2019. Flying Hawk T1 jets, the team is based at RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire.

Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after contraversial £900,000 paint job.
Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after controversial £900,000 paint job. Image shows RAF Lossiemouth Typhoons while refuelling with ZZ336, Vespina.
Today the newly painted RAF Voyager ZZ336, aka Vespina, took flight on its first operational sortie after its refurbishment.
Departing RAF Brize Norton, the Voyager aircraft flew up to the North Sea, refuelling Typhoons out of RAF Lossiemouth and F-35’s out of RAF Marham.
This will be only the second flight of Vespina, her first coming yesterday when flying from Marshall’s, in Cambridge, to RAF Brize Norton, her home. It will also be a showcase of her ability to conduct dual roles, transporting VVIP’s and refuelling tanking aircraft on exercise.
The F-35’s and Typhoons are currently flying as part of Exercise Crimson Ocean, which has involved the F-35’s of Number 617 Squadron operating from the Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier for the very first time.
The Typhoon jets are operated by Number 9 Squadron, otherwise known as No. IX (Bomber) Squadron, who are a recently reformed squadron that operated the Tornado GR4 until its retirement in March last year. The Typhoons call Gotham home, Gotham currently a part of RAF Lossiemouth.
Alongside the IX Sqn Typhoons and 617 Sqn F-35’s, 1 Squadron jets also refuelled, and a single Hawk, flown by Number 100 Squadron, out of RAF Leeming, also shared the skies of the North Sea. The jet, a photo whip aircraft, while conducting essential training as part of its sortie, used the opportunity to capture some unique imagery of Vespina conducting its refuelling role.

Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after contraversial £900,000 paint job.
Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after controversial £900,000 paint job. Following the arrival of the RAF VIP Voyager “Vespina” at its base at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire on Thursday 25th June 2021, the aircraft undertook its first operational tasking today Friday 26th June 2021, by tanking RAF Lightning and Typhoon fighters during Exercise CRIMSON OCEAN.
After several weeks repainting, the Voyager was confirmed ready to undertake its full operational role of Air-to-Air Refuelling and personnel transport alongside the rest of the RAF Voyager fleet. Taking off from RAF Brize Norton, the aircraft spent most of the day airborne to provide several refuelling stops for the fighters taking part in the joint RAF and Royal Navy exercise. This refuelliung occured off the North East coast of the United Kingdom.
Exercise CRIMSON OCEAN allows the Royal Navy and RAF to train and hone their ability to deliver routine fighter and helicopter operations in a range of environments from the aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth. Lightning aircraft from 617 Squadron have been onboard the carrier since 9 July when they left their base at RAF Marham in Norfolk.
The aircraft, known as Vespina is also referred to as 'ZZ336', its military registration number, was previously visually indistinguishable from the rest of the RAF Voyager Fleet. The new paint scheme will better reflect its VIP mission and contribution to ‘Global Britain’. The paintwork concludes a refurbishment stemming from the 2015 SDSR.
THE TYPHOON WAS FROM 9 SQN BASED AT RAF LOSSIEMOUTH. F35 AIRCRAFT FROM 617 SQN, RAF MARHAM.

Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after contraversial £900,000 paint job.
Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after controversial £900,000 paint job. Following the arrival of the RAF VIP Voyager “Vespina” at its base at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire on Thursday 25th June 2021, the aircraft undertook its first operational tasking today Friday 26th June 2021, by tanking RAF Lightning and Typhoon fighters during Exercise CRIMSON OCEAN.
After several weeks repainting, the Voyager was confirmed ready to undertake its full operational role of Air-to-Air Refuelling and personnel transport alongside the rest of the RAF Voyager fleet. Taking off from RAF Brize Norton, the aircraft spent most of the day airborne to provide several refuelling stops for the fighters taking part in the joint RAF and Royal Navy exercise. This refuelliung occured off the North East coast of the United Kingdom.
Exercise CRIMSON OCEAN allows the Royal Navy and RAF to train and hone their ability to deliver routine fighter and helicopter operations in a range of environments from the aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth. Lightning aircraft from 617 Squadron have been onboard the carrier since 9 July when they left their base at RAF Marham in Norfolk.
The aircraft, known as Vespina is also referred to as 'ZZ336', its military registration number, was previously visually indistinguishable from the rest of the RAF Voyager Fleet. The new paint scheme will better reflect its VIP mission and contribution to ‘Global Britain’. The paintwork concludes a refurbishment stemming from the 2015 SDSR.
THE TYPHOON WAS FROM 9 SQN BASED AT RAF LOSSIEMOUTH. F35 AIRCRAFT FROM 617 SQN, RAF MARHAM.

Boris Johnson’s RAF Voyager plane takes to the skies for first time after controversial £900,000 paint job. Image shows RAF pilots Flt Lt Gannon and Flt Lt Small, preparing ZZ336 for its first operational sortie.
Today the newly painted RAF Voyager ZZ336, aka Vespina, took flight on its first operational sortie after its refurbishment.
Departing RAF Brize Norton, the Voyager aircraft flew up to the North Sea, refuelling Typhoons out of RAF Lossiemouth and F-35’s out of RAF Marham.
This will be only the second flight of Vespina, her first coming yesterday when flying from Marshall’s, in Cambridge, to RAF Brize Norton, her home. It will also be a showcase of her ability to conduct dual roles, transporting VVIP’s and refuelling tanking aircraft on exercise.
The F-35’s and Typhoons are currently flying as part of Exercise Crimson Ocean, which has involved the F-35’s of Number 617 Squadron operating from the Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier for the very first time.
The Typhoon jets are operated by Number 9 Squadron, otherwise known as No. IX (Bomber) Squadron, who are a recently reformed squadron that operated the Tornado GR4 until its retirement in March last year. The Typhoons call Gotham home, Gotham currently a part of RAF Lossiemouth.
Alongside the IX Sqn Typhoons and 617 Sqn F-35’s, 1 Squadron jets also refuelled, and a single Hawk, flown by Number 100 Squadron, out of RAF Leeming, also shared the skies of the North Sea. The jet, a photo whip aircraft, while conducting essential training as part of its sortie, used the opportunity to capture some unique imagery of Vespina conducting its refuelling role.

UK ARMED FORCES WELCOME PRESIDENT MACRON AS HE AWARDS LEGION D’HONNEUR TO LONDON
Today 18th June 2020
The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows, and the Patrouille De France carried out joint flypasts of both Paris and London on Thursday, 18 June, 2020 – in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of a speech by Charles de Gaulle, Leader of the Free French Forces. Known as the Appeal of 18 June, the speech is often considered to be the origin of the French Resistance to Nazi occupation during the Second World War. De Gaulle spoke to the French people from London after the fall of France and was broadcast live by BBC radio. He stressed France was not alone and reminded those listening that Great Britain would support the French to retake their country. It is regarded as one of the most important speeches in French history.
Following the Patrouille De France over Paris, past monuments such as Arc de Triompe and the Eiffel Tower on this 80th anniversary reinforces the bond between our nation, it is a great honour.
The flypast was then mirrored over London, this time with the Red Arrows leading the 18 jet formation over historic buildings such as Buckingham Palace, Horse Guards and Number 10 Downing Street.
Officially known as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows showcase the excellence of the RAF and represent the United Kingdom both at home and overseas. The team consists of 11 pilots, nine of whom fly in the display, and more than 100 support personnel and technicians.

The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, The Red Arrows currently deployed on Exercise WESTERNHAWK 2019.
It is the first time the Red Arrows have been to North America since 2008 and the deployment will be the most ambitious tour of Canada and the United States ever undertaken by the team ñ going coast-to-coast. With stops across the continent, the tour comprises a combination of nearly 20 aerobatic displays, several iconic flypasts and 100 separate ground engagement activities ñ from business receptions to sessions aimed at inspiring young people.
Each show is a demonstration of creativity, engineering excellence and innovation ñ not just hallmarks of the Red Arrows and RAF but of the proven capabilities, strengths and skills of the UK.
The tour is an indication of the UKís continuing commitment to enduring relationships, mutual prosperity and extensive security cooperation in the region. Moreover, the tour provides chance to celebrate and enhance international trade and investment between the UK, Canada and the US, worth more than £208 billion in 2018.
Speaking at the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT), Gloucestershire, Minister for the Armed Forces, Mark Lancaster, said: ìThe United Kingdom shares a deep and enduring defence relationship with both Canada and the US.
ìSending our world-famous RAF Red Arrows demonstrates the UKís global ambitions and will provide a unique opportunity to strengthen our partnerships with two of our closest allies.î
Wing Commander Andrew Keith, Officer Commanding, Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, said: ìTours by the Red Arrows have always been an important role of the team ñ aiming to demonstrate RAF expertise, helping to highlight UK excellence across a range of sectors and celebrating close connections with friends and allies.
