Can anyone explain why the Red Arrows were not in the flypast at Yesterdays Royal Wedding. and wouldn't it have been great to have Concorde flying as well.

Concorde is no longer airworthy, agree with the Red Arrows, would have made a fitting finale.

A quick look at their official website reveals that they visited Rochefort airshow in france and Southend air show in Southend last friday.

The section that tells about how to request a display or a flypast actually states that the team are not allowed to do flypasts at weddings, but I doubt that that would have been a reason though.

More than likely.think they may be in cyprus trainig for the air shows
The Red Arrows have left Lincolnshire for their annual Spring training detachment to Royal Air Force Akrotiri in Cyprus.
The Team will train overseas, flying three sorties a day, five days a week to prepare for the busy summer display season.
The aircraft, pilots, engineers and support crew will not return to the UK and their home base at Royal Air Force Scampton in Lincolnshire until the end of May.

Sorry, I missed this earlier post. oh:Given the state of our defence budget I'm not sure we van justify either the BBMF or the Reds
What about the Vulcan?

I agree the red arrows would have been nice - BUT.....The fact that his rescue heli, flying his own service flag did a flyover that coincided with him driving himself away from the palace, was pretty perfect timing for something that wasn't planned!
Almost as if his heli led them on their way - which was pretty cool!:thumb:
