EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the RAF Red Arrows in action during their aerial display in circa 1977. The image showcases the Folland Gnat jets, the aircraft type used by the Red Arrows at the time, as they perform a synchronized run and break maneuver towards the end of their breathtaking performance. The Royal Air Force (RAF) Red Arrows, the official aerobatics team of the British Royal Air Force, are renowned for their precision and skill. In this photograph, we see the pilots expertly maneuvering their Gnat jets in perfect unison, creating a stunning visual display of power and agility. The Folland Gnat, a British single-engine, single-seat, transonic trainer and light combat aircraft, was in service with the RAF from 1958 to 1993. The aircraft's versatility and excellent handling qualities made it an ideal choice for the Red Arrows, allowing them to execute complex aerial maneuvers with precision and finesse. The run and break maneuver, also known as a "Vic Formation," is a classic formation flying technique where the aircraft fly in a staggered formation, with the wingtips of each plane aligned. In this photograph, we see the Red Arrows executing this maneuver flawlessly, as they prepare to conclude their display with a bang. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the RAF Red Arrows and the iconic Folland Gnat aircraft. It captures the excitement and thrill of aviation, transporting us back in time to an era when the skies were filled with the sound of roaring jet engines and the sight of mesmerizing aerial displays.
