Memories

Since I have lived here in Bournemouth for the last 15 yrs I have seen the Red Arrows most years and my daughter has spent most summers watching from the beach .
2011 was a sad year when Flt Lt Jon Egging, 33, died when his Hawk T1 aircraft crashed following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival. This memorial was put up on the cliff the following year.It features three glass Red Arrows planes and stainless steel contrails. My photo taken at the end of a working day with the light going doesn't really do it justice


.The Red Arrow,s !
Another fine display

By the Red Arrow,s

Down, on Bournemouth beach

Red, white & blue

You, feel you can reach

All in formation

Impressing the nation!

Leaving patter,s in the sky

A show, for you & I

The air display

No need to pay

A very hard

Act , to follow

Finished with a big Red heart

& through it is an arrow

Thank you, for our free display

As off you go & fly away

See you next year

They have no fear

Give them a big cheer

9 brave men

In their flying machine,s

Incredible show..

Must be seen !!!
