Treated to a superb Red Arrows display overhead today. And plenty of other aircraft - too many to recognise, although ones that I did spot were a Spitfire, Vampire, Hurricane and possibly a Meteor.

Non-stop all afternoon and into the early evening in a cloudless sky. They seem to have been very busy today, as they were at the Great North Run this morning.

It appears to have been a private arrangement with Marshall's airport here in Cambridge (just across the road from me) for their 100 years commemoration as I can't remember seeing it advertised.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Well done Marshalls for 100 years.
Well done the red arrows, insulting that they will not be at the UK olympics. But what can one expect from this anti British goverment of ours.

Sorry CH, didn't go, was ferrying my next door neighbour back and forth to hospital so that she could visit her 80 year old husband.
