Red Arrows reveal 2025 team
The first nine-aircraft flight for the new 2025 Red Arrows team was unveiled on December 19 at RAF Waddington.
A facebook video taken on the final day of flying across the skies of Lincolnshire in 2024 was the culmination of a building block approach used to prepare for a new season, with smaller sections training initially before all nine jets are flown as one formation.
Two new pilots joining the Red Arrows for the 2025 season, Flight Lieutenants Rob Thomas and Andrew McEwen, have been training with other team members. They have previously flown RAF Typhoon and F-35B Lightning aircraft respectively.
