Dear Ladies and Gents of the Red Arrows Association, Clearly, 2026 has been a challenging year so far, in that whilst we managed to get a good-sized party to RAF Waddington in early February, to spend a day with the Team, poor weather precluded any flying activity and our attempts to hold a reunion at RIAT were thwarted by the cancellation of the Air Show, in toto, due to US Air Force operational requirements. We did manage, to offer an event at the RAF Cosford Air Show but it was attended by only a very small handful from the Association. Having laid on an event at Cleethorpes to coincide with Armed Forces Day celebrations during 2024 and 2025, dwindling interest/ numbers have led us to the conclusion that the membership prefers a different type of get-together so we won’t be seeking to replicate that in the future.
