Reds have cancelled Torbay today - not sure if there will be a new NOTAM for their transit home.

They do still have Flypasts planned at Southampton and Buckingham Palace.

On ADSB, a Red Arrow is showing heading north west after departing Exeter, not sure if it is a singleton or the team.

I’m tempted to say 2 have landed. Visibility poor in South Cerney but sounded like a couple passed over on the path the U2’s normally take.

Not sure they'll make it in to Scampton - they've only got SRA radar which is not as accurate/ can't land them without the pilot seeing the runway towards the end of the approach.
