  • what 's the song ??

  • Thank you for uploading this.

  • My Dads cousin, Flt Lt Stanley Wood was one of the Black Arrow pilots. He was sadly killed in 1960 in a mid-air collision during practice over RAF Watisham. He'd been married 6 months. RIP Stanley.

  • Wonderful video great quality. Where was it filmed ?? Its a WW2 airbase with all the dispersal areas, and GLOSTER JAVELINS in the taxing sequence. Im a 1954 model and saw them in the early '60s, what a lasting impression.Im reading an old Meccano Mag Oct 1960 & has an article on the Black Arrows and there were16 'planes in the flight. The in cockpit footage is fantastic and makes you realise how blooming clever these pilots are.

    Cheers Del, Isle of Wight, ex- Bromley Kent.

  • love this vid the great thing is when i was at bournemouth i sat in and took picks of XG160 who was appart of these displays with the black arrows she in really good condition its £2 to get in if your under 16 i think add me on facebook if u wanna see my pic's im ryan stretch lumb and its in my mob uploads folder send me a message first so i know who u are if u wanna have a look

  • Wow great tribute to the proud traditions of the RAF!!!

  • WOW AWESOME !

  • I can remember them as a kid. They were an excellent team after which the Red Arrows carried on the tradition. I would have liked to have seen the Firebirds which were a formation team of (would you believe it ) Lightnings.

  • i once watched the black arrows in 1958 i think ,,doing a display over skegness,,they used the hawker hunter jets ,,a fully operational fighter jet.not like the red arrows that use the hawk trainer jet .my dad was stationed at raf wattisham at the start of ww11 so he had great pride for black arrows,the red arrows took over their roll with a different squadron and are stationed at raf scampton and have continued to carry on making the british raf display teams the best in the world.

  • P.S. That wasn't a criticism as such, I'd just love to hear all the hunters howling!
