The Red Arrows will be taking to the skies over Kent again today (Sunday, June 6) as part of celebrations for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The world famous Red Arrows, which have been so much a part of this special four day holiday, will fly across Kent, as they head out to sea.

Setting off from Exeter Airport at 4.19pm, the pilots will begin their rapid journey across Southern England towards Kent. And they will be flying over or near many towns across Kent. They include Goudhurst, Staplehurst, Lenham, Marden, Sutton Valence, Leeds Castle, Faversham, Isle of Sheppey and Whitstable.

The Red Arrows are due to reach Uckfield in East Sussex at 4.44pm and from there will fly in a north easterly direction as they head up to the Kent coast off Whitstable for 4.53pm. From there they will change direction, and come back inland in the direction of Colchester.

And don’t forget, there are other aviation treats. You can see the Lancaster (PA474) today (June 5) at Maidstone between 3.45pm and 4.30pm.
