They display at Duxford first. If anyone knows their time slot for Duxford, that should give a clue as to what time they are expected back at base (on the newly resurfaced runway)

Are the Red's displaying at Duxford or is it just a flypast..? They are meant to be displaying at the Patrouille de France 60th anniversary show on the same day in the South of France, can't seem them transiting back from France and going straight into a display, they might be pushed for time to land refuel and then display unless they are first to display in France and last on at Duxford..

From the official site,
The Team will return to our home-base at RAF Scampton on the 26 May after a series of displays in Cyprus, Greece and France, where we will be taking part in the 60th anniversary celebrations for the French National Display Team, the Patrouille de France.

The Red Arrows' first UK display will be at Duxford Spring Airshow on 26th May.

The Red Arrows are closing the show at Duxford on Sunday then recovering to Cambridge at 17.37 local so they won't be back at Scampton until 18.30 to 19.00 at the earliest
