Sad news to bring you today Lincolnshire
in September, ahead of the site shutting down and bringing to an end 106 years of history. It was many people’s final chance to witness the Red Arrows at the place they called home from 1983 to 1995, and then again from 2000 to 2022.
The move is a vital one for Royal Air Force lovers in Lincolnshire, who will still get to see the world famous display team operate from an RAF base in this county – maintaining a strong connection to the local area that spans almost 40 years. At present, the team have “initial operating capability” from RAF Waddington, with future investment planned at the station for the Red Arrows’ hangar and headquarters building – formerly used by No. 8 Squadron and its sentry aircraft fleet.
“Wherever we may have ended up we would have made it work, but we’ve been based here in Lincolnshire for 39 years out of our 58 year history, so it’s been the majority of the Red Arrows history.
