Red Arrows flypast for England squad

A spectacular sight

Lincolnshire’s own Red Arrows performed a special flypast for the England football squad ahead of the FIFA World Cup in Russia.

The aerial acrobatic team were returning to their base at RAF Scampton after performing at the RAF Cosford airshow when they performed their tribute to the Three Lions.
