First formed in 1964 as the official Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows have been thrilling and delighting audiences since their first performances at Clermont Ferrand and Biggin Hill in May 1965. These were to be the first of 65 team displays flown that year, not just in France and the UK, but also at events in Italy, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium. This tremendous effort in their first year earned the team the Royal Aero Club's prestigious Britannia Trophy for their outstanding contribution to the reputation of British aviation, setting the benchmark for the future of the team in no uncertain terms. This year sees the 50th display season flown by the team, a remarkable achievement by a remarkable group of pilots, engineers and support staff. It also sees the 40th anniversary of the first flight of the BAE SYSTEMS Hawk, the fast, agile and supremely reliable advanced jet trainer that has been the team's aircraft since 1980 and is still in production in advanced versions today.
