Literally just got home and unpacked. Was at the show for Friday, which ran late due to low cloud. No parachutists, no chinook. The Battle of Britain flight, the typhoon, the Blades and of course the Red Arrows were most enjoyable, though the wing walkers were closest to the pier, where we were standing.
There’s been ‘personal’ problems within the team this year with one pilot essentially sacked and problems within the command structure and it was too late in the training programme so they had to resort to their « 7 » display. Hope this helps. Ian
I've always been a huge fan of the Red Arrows but the display at Eastbourne this year was disappointing. For a start there were 2 aircraft missing. Most of the display was so far out to sea you needed binoculars. Frankly it was not spectacular but I guess Health & Safety after the Shoreham tragedy has now put an end to yet another thing I used to love watching.
I think the Red Arrows have become complacent with their perceived ability as 'the best'. Now struggling to maintain very old, and comparatively underpowered, jets as well as internal issues within the squadron..
As someone who is from Eastbourne, It's even better when your here
Great coverage of this outstanding R A display . Thanks for posting .
Thank you for watching!
i cant wait to see these next year
Perfect! 10/10 greetings from Canada.

Yes Friday was a slow star but it was a good day once things got started

I think there's a backstory to the missing two pilots
@@TheGalwayFarmer yes I looked into it. Such a shame.. they are losing my respect now. I first watched them in the 1960s at Biggin Hill.
@@nigelwilliams9307 what was the reason?
@@mandinga3853 I believe a couple of pilots were grounded for inappropriate behaviour.
Not a good year for them, they were totally blown into the bushes by the Korean team at RIAT 2022.
