Thank you for you comments. The Red Arrows base themselves at Bournemouth 3 or 4 times over weekends whilst they do 'local' shows. They have been here twice in the last month & will be back for the Bournemouth Air Festival in late August. They probably will be back for a weekend before as well.Nice shots. I've seen them flying around and doing random breaks etc all weekend, great set

Fantastic pic's
Thanks all, I really appreciate your comments. I wanted to post something a little different about the Red Arrows, & TBH I had a lot more photos of different takes I wanted to post, but it had to be narrowed down to 10. Probably for the better
. I can't speak for other airports but you can take Photos of the Red Arrows at each end of the runway (on the public road). It is just a matter of getting into the best position. Once they arrive at Bournemouth they always do a mini display then land one by one. After that they park up at Flight Refueling, I believe they now go under the name of Cobham. There is a lane that goes near the planes & the pilots & support team always come over with leaflets & talk.

Best aircraft shots I've seen in a long time, just because they are different and well captured, well done

I'll have to get my contact @ Cobham to blag a family day pass for this year when they're all dispersed @ Hurn or at least call in a favour! Would you know if they use Bouremouth Flying Club's facilities at all as that is real easy to access. FRA/Cobham always play host to the arrows
Superb images BTW. Could hook up if interested.

Nice set Redspider, they buzzed us down at Baiter this morning just after they had taken, they came across Canford Cliffs just getting into formation then turned across Brownsea Island and then headed back inland over Baiter.
I went out to Hurn earlier in the year when I knew they were there but could not get close to them, I will have to look for this lane you mention, is that coming in via the Matcham end of Hurn??

Thank youTotally agree.

I've never seen tham at Bournemouth Flying Club, thats not to say they don't use it of course. Bournemouth Flying club has been refurbished & is now nice & clean & brighter with good food, & a great place to take photos of Aircraft from. If you can get in Cobham & IF you can get a spare pass think of me
. What is this name change from FRA to Cobham. The hanger has Cobham on now & also some of the Falcons as per photo below.
Thank you.

A couple of times they flew over our house, thats when thy turn to the IOW way. When they flew out on Sunday, in the Afternoon they must have gone the Baiter way. The lane is off Matchams lane.
The Red Arrows are great. Thanks.
Thank you
Thanks.Good set, I like the behind the scenes stuff
I also think it is nice to see some of the background staff etc. I also know they shop at Asda. My Mrs bumped into one there.
