Alas, the gusty crosswinds prevented the BoBMF Lancaster from performing at Bray. Bad weather also led to the cancellation of the Red Arrows display. A six-ship formation taxied out for departure off runway 28 just as a heavy rain shower swept across the field. Red Leader advised ATC that they could not display at Bray in such conditions and they returned to the apron. The seventh aircraft had started up but subsequently shut down its engine with a tech issue.

 

Five of the Red Arrows departed home to RAF Scampton @ 1935L and I believe the other two will follow in the coming days.
