  • The Reds gave us a great buzz up Beachy Head with some really low, high speed flybys whilst repositioning for the next part of the display. Really got the heart racing!

    One of the harsh things in life is growing up and losing the wonder of things that only come from being a kid , but even now when I see the red arrows live they still fill me with the same wonderment and excitement as when I was a kid going to see them every year at ards air show 🇬🇧🇬🇧

    I've seen the Red Arrows at Eastbourne many times but always from the seafront. Then in 2008, we decided to watch from Beachy Head as I was heavily pregnant and wanted to avoid the crowds and realised it was actually the best viewing point. Haven't seen them at Eastbourne since as we moved later that year. Great memories.

    I've only seen the Red Arrows once, and it was fantastic, made extra special because they were viewd from up on the hills above the Dartmouth River, which they flew along very low. The sound echoing from the valley below was exceptional. It was a beautiful summer evening, and we gorged on Pig Roast, that a local farmer had gifted to the watching crowds; and with plenty of Cider.

    I remember I was in an airshow with my parents when I was 10 years old... I was so scared because how loud these jets was... And I remember the Red Arrows too! With that V formation flying above us red white blue smoke. It was nice to see but I had no idea what the purpose of these aircrafts at that time(and I did not remember too much of it)... All I remember is that loud sound and how scared I was. :D I will be honest I did not enjoyed that too much. I wanted to go home. :D But nowadays things have changed. All I want to see is every single modern fighter jet or military aircrafts in real life. :D I did saw the Red Arrows in London when the Coronation flypast happened. Sadly a cut down version of it with just only helicopters and the Red Arrows and I was very very sad... I wanted to see the C-17 Globemaster the A400M Atlas, the C-130 Hercules, R-135W Rivet Joint, the Poseidon MRA1 I was sooo prepared for that day I remember... :D Ohh the Eurofighter Typhoons and the F-35B... Nevermind. Maybe next time. Iam 27 years old and I can tell you I have never seen these aircrafts in real life(From pictures or from videos its not the same experience). Only the Red Arrows for now. :D Anyways nice video mate! :D

      Just re-positioning for the next part of the display and giving folks a great low flyby buzz on the hill in the process 👍😉

    To be honest, I think the Reds might be pretty upset with this. If that was an "airshow crowd" then that would be illegal flying. This has been a loophole for some time, in that "unofficial" crowds weren't factored into display lines. After the tragedy at Shoreham that has changed, and I I suspect the ultra-professional reds will be re-risk assessing this kind of thing and I doubt you'll see them this low over the crowds at this point again in future.
    Kind of sad, I know, but that's the way of the world.
