It’s been a great weekend for Red Arrows fans as the Royal Air Force’s world famous aerobatics team paid a visit to Hawarden.

The team used the airport as an overnight base on Saturday landing just after 1pm, prior to an early evening display at Blackpool pleasure beach.

Hundreds of fans were out to see them take off and land from airport used mainly by Airbus’s giant wing tranporter Beluga.
