Amazing photos shared by the Red Arrows show the RAF display team transiting from England to Scotland for training ahead of this year's display season.

In a post on X, the Red Arrows shared a photo taken from the cockpit of a Hawk jet flying over beautiful landscape, alongside a number of other images showing the aircraft in formation.

They were transiting from RAF Waddington in Lancashire to RAF Lossiemouth in Moray on a routine training visit.

The Arrows are in Lossiemouth to continue their pre-season training as they continue to gradually develop the new 2025 display. 

The team finished 2024 with the first nine-aircraft flight from this year's display team at RAF Waddington.

The nine-aircraft flight was achieved through a building block approach which saw smaller sections training separately before all nine jets were flown as one formation.

The Red Arrows delivery stunning displays all over the world, but for now they're based in Britain
