The world famous Red Arrows fly over Northamptonshire TODAY and TOMORROW (June 12th and 13th).
But you have to be quick to catch a glimpse – and don’t expect red, white, and blue smoke or fancy loops and fly-bys.
The RAF team travels south today to see The Trooping of the Color, which marks the official birthday of the British sovereign for over 260 years.
