Weather cancellation. Oh well. There's always the 80th anniversary.

Heard them on the scanner around North Berwick area talking to Edinburgh Control, but that was about it.

I had a great spot overlooking Coldingham Bay could hear them but that was it would have got great shots.

Was up on Corstorphine Hill, you should have heard the disappointment when they found out Flypast was cancelled, Thanks to a young guy with a Scanner. Still gutted.
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
Cardiff also cancelled due to weather, the Reds are just landing at Brize for fuel, tea & medals.
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
Just one of those things.
We should be used to it. August wouldn't be August if there wasn't at least one flypast cancelled (think Military Tattoo).
Unfortunate there's no Tattoo though, & this was the only flypast scheduled.
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
The Facebook gammon is NOT happy at the lack of flypasts today, apparently something about "it wouldn't have happened on VJ-Day" and stuff.
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
London now cancelled too

The state of some of those comments...embarrassing.
"Can you believe it? Chelsea will just not let go in the Champions League!"
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
A shame about the weather for the Reds, but at least the BBMF managed to get their flypast in for the veterans at Alrewas this morning.

Just to show how bad the weather was earlier:
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
Cracking flypast in beautiful Belfast, loved seeing Red 10 banking and swooping around the team taking photos.
Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
Any truth in the story that the Red Arrows are flying over Edinburgh Tomorrow night at 7pm?

Seen this, for RAF Scampton, might be related. Courtesy of FC, posted in their Scampton thread.

Red 6 has suffered a bird strike to the canopy and has been escorted into Edinburgh Airport by Red 9.

Re: Red Arrows flypast of Edinburgh as part of VJ Day
So do we think flypasts over London and Cardiff are also in the pipeline?
