The Red Arrows will be thundering through the skies today (Friday), including parts of the Fens, as part of an anniversary flight.
The planned flypast is part of RAF Mildenhall’s Big Birthday Bash, performed by the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team.
Taking off from RAF Scampton at 2.18pm, the squadron will lead to the east coast, then into Norfolk before heading towards Mildenhall at 2.35pm.
The jets will then head towards the Cross Drove area off the A141 near Chatteris at 2.48pm before heading back into Bourne at 2.51pm and returning to base.
Clear skies are expected for the flypast this afternoon, so aviation fans can expect to gain a clear sighting of the jets.
