Famous jets to fly into Burnham area for Weston Air Day this weekend

-

The world-famous Red Arrows and other planes will take to local skies this weekend during the annual Weston Air Show.

The event started on Saturday (June 20th) and continues on Sunday (June 21st), featuring a number of famous aviation names.

The Red Arrows will be in action – full times below – with a great line-up of planes.

Saturday’s performance by the Red Arrows was unfortunately halted early due to low cloud and sea mist temporarily affecting visibility.

The Red Arrows will be flying their familiar diamond formation and the show will also feature aircraft from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, the Avro Vulcan and several aerobatic displays.

The best place to see the action will be Weston itself, but much of the display will be visible from Brean Down, weather permitting.

The world-renowned Royal Air Force aerobatic team, The Red Arrows, are confirmed to perform a thrilling precision flying display, featuring their trademark formations, close-passes and dynamic loops and rolls.
