25 Years of the Red Arrows, Hardback, Miller, Gibson & Hanna, Vintage

The Red Arrows need little introduction. They are known throughout the world for their spectacular aerial acrobatics and as ambassadors for both the Royal Air Force and for Britain.

In this celebration of their twenty-five years of achievement, the authors look at the history of the flying team, explain the rigours of selection training and take the reader through a weekend's typical WHAM (What's Happening Manager?) - the detailed listing of times and instructions that is the cornerstone for the smooth operation of the Red Arrows. They also examine various aspects of the work of the ground crew, who provide such a valuable service to the pilots and their Hawk aircraft.

Written by Squadron Leader Tim Miller and former Leader Ray Hanna and beautifully illustrated with over 150 colour photographs by Arthur Gibson, 25 Years of the Red Arrows is both an intriguing behind the scenes revelation of aircraft enthusiasts and a valuable handbook for anyone who has ever seen, or is likely to see, the famous team in action.
