EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the RAF Red Arrows aerobatics team performs a Leaders Benefit formation flypast over Edinburgh in 1971. The team, part of the Royal Air Force (RAF) at that time, showcases their impressive skills and precision in the air with their Folland Gnat jet trainers. The Folland Gnat, a versatile and agile aircraft, was the backbone of the RAF's jet training fleet during the 1960s and 1970s. Its sleek design and powerful engines made it an ideal choice for both training and aerobatic displays. In this image, the Red Arrows team expertly maneuvers their Gnats into a Leaders Benefit formation, a complex and visually striking maneuver that involves the aircraft flying in a diamond shape with the leader's plane at the apex. The Leaders Benefit formation flypast was a popular feature of air shows and public events during the 1960s and 1970s. It allowed the public to appreciate the skill and teamwork of the RAF's aerobatics teams, while also showcasing the capabilities of the Folland Gnat aircraft. This photograph, taken in Edinburgh in 1971, captures the essence of that era in aviation history. The RAF Red Arrows team, which was formed in 1965, has a rich history of representing the RAF at air shows and events around the world. Their dynamic displays continue to thrill audiences today, making them a beloved symbol of British aviation and military heritage. This photograph is a testament to their impressive past and enduring legacy. This photograph is available for licensing from Mary Evans Picture Library, and it is a valuable addition to any collection of aviation history or military memorabilia. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the skill and precision of the RAF Red Arrows team and their Folland Gnat aircraft during a Leaders Benefit formation flypast over Edinburgh in 1971.
