They've revealed their flight path ahead of their Eastbourne air show appearance
The Red Arrows have revealed their flight plan ahead of their Thursday slot at Eastbourne Air Show.
The iconic planes are set to soar through Sussex skies on their way to the event, meaning some lucky locals may be able to spot the jets from their gardens.
They're due to appear on all four days of the air show as Eastbourne gets ready to celebrate it's 28th anniversary of "air show excellence". A Battle of Britain memorial flight is also on the line-up, flying alongside an RAF Typhoon, which has been hyped up as a "rarely seen duo" by event organisers.
But where are the places to be if you want to catch a glimpse of their pre-show flight?
Red Arrows sightings will begin in Alton at 4:20 following their 4:18 departure from Odiham Air Base, Hampshire. They'll then glide across Petersfield at 4:22 as they continue on their journey, passing Fittleworth at 4:24 and Burgess Hill at 4:27. The planes will cross Alfiston at 4:29, arriving at Eastbourne for their display at 4:30.
There's still a chance to see them on their return journey, too - you can spot them at Windmill Hill at 4:59, Henfield at 5:03 before they head on to Haslemere at 5:05pm. The Red Arrows will breeze through Bordon at 5:07 before they arrive back at their Odiham home.
