Only the day before I was on my way to a camping holiday in Newquay, Cornwall. As we passed the RAF base in Treloy, the Red Arrows were just taking off in arrow formation. We saw 2 groups of 3. Pretty awesome as they passed over us at about house roof height.

RIP to the fallen Arrow. Just watched them display a few weeks back at Southport. Amazing skill. This pilot saved countless lives by steering his stricken plane away from houses. A true hero.

10 years on and it's in my recommendations strange

[deliow]

Been watching them since the late '60s when they flew KNATS, the safety record is very good, its just one of those things.
If the RED ARROWS get grounded then it is TOTALLY WRONG
RIP the pilot, you have given so much happiness to so MANY people.

[tearsfears]

i have watched the red arrows perform at least a dozen times in the last 10 years,
this is a sad & tragic day for the squadron & fans alike.

[vstol]

A tragic and very sad event. My sincere condolences are offered to his family and to all the members of the team to which he belonged. R.I.P. Jon.

The red arrows fly over my house 2 times a year every august, and since this it has never felt quite the same

[oscarz]

[Morde]

i was at bournemouth at the time and i am a big fan and this is the reason i went and with the vulcan bomber downed they were the main show even if they were the opening performance. RIP and thanks for the best performances in britan

[relentlessboredem]

why is this in my feed now in 2021? i thought something terrible had

[imcontemptwithlife]

Red arrows really dropped in performance recently, they’re so quiet, boring and the routine hadn’t changed in years. Need new planes and to spice up the performance a bit.

@MrNellie2200 Re: "well obv theres no next living existence" : Wow! You've been beyond this life and managed to come back to tell US ALL this most important 'fact' ! When may I conduct an interview with you? We need to let the whole world know that someone has finally broken the Soul-Barrier! As for the other half of your comment: I don't know. What I do know is that this is the most indescribable time for his loved ones; especially his beloved wife Emma. Let US ALL share our deepest sympathy.

Blue Skies to the skilled pilot who saved others. The Red Arrows are a national institution.
