Keep your eyes on the skies!

The world-famous Red Arrow jets will be passing over Swindon on the way to an event later this afternoon, Saturday, June 3. 

The iconic air display team will leave RAF Fairford at around 2.45pm and be visible above Swindon just two minutes later before arriving at the Exeter Aerodrome at 3.06pm.

This route may change at the last minute due to weather conditions, but sunny skies are expected for the rest of the day so this should not pose a problem.

If you miss them, they are highly likely to fly overhead again while travelling to this year's Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford, which begins on July 14, and while making the return journey home once the on July 17.

Joining the Red Arrows at the 2023 RIAT, the British Aerospace Hawk Mk.51 and McDonnell Douglas F/A-18C Hornet from the Finnish Air Force, two German Army NH90 TTC helicopters, a Leonardo C-27J Spartan from the Lithuanian Air Force and a Hawker Hunter MK.58 will all be taking part in either flying or static display.
