I live fairly near Scone airfield, and when I heard they were having the Red Arrows giving a display at their airshow I looked at the maps and picked out a good vantage point overlooking the airfield.  I also looked at the NOTAMs to find out when the display was, and set off.

The weather was poor, showers were coming through, but they were lucky with their assigned slot.  I loved the display, sadly just missed being in place to get them arriving over the hill from the direction of Leuchars.

This is the ‘Vixen break’ which is (almost) always the last figure.
