Don't know if this is the same air show mentioned in an earlier post but in this one there will be a restored Folland Gnat in the air for all to see. Plus the Red Arrows' nine scarlet Hawks will be there also (Heads up Mr. Piper) :flying:

I wonder if this particular Gnat is actually an ex-Arrow. Time for some more googling... :cpu:

Great to know another of these lovely types is flying again. Before long we'll once again have a Gnat nine-ship team!!
