The iconic red jets will take to the skies over Nottinghamshire for low-level winter flight training
The Red Arrows are set to carry out low-level winter flight training over new airspace following the closure of RAF Scampton in Lincolnshire.
In a statement, the Civil Aviation Authority [CAA] said the move was to enable the team "to practice low-flying training, owing to the closure of their previous operating base". RAF Leeming in North Yorkshire and RAF Wittering in Cambridgeshire were both considered as a potential new location for the team, but RAF Waddington - just 10 miles from Scampton - was identified as the best possible location.
It said: "RAF Syerston has been identified as potentially suitable. To determine whether RAF Syerston is a viable option for establishment of new permanent airspace, a temporary airspace structure is required to test the site and assess what the impact would be."
