Waiting Clearance

Waiting on the runway of Blackpool Airport for take off clearance, we had to wait for the RAF Red Arrows to clear our air space after displaying over the beach, all nine crossed our path in three groups of three by the time I got my compact camera out six had gone by, I was in a small light aircraft taking a flying lesson. (my entry for this weeks from a window theme)

@simta Спасибо за ваши комментарии Татьяна, я не летал в этом году, это слишком дорого теперь, когда я вышел в отставку :)

Now this is a different window photo. Great shot and well done for getting the shot too. I miss seeing the Red Arrows sometimes. They always came to Cyprus for a couple of month during February time to practice their routine for the summer.

Great timing to get at least 3 of the 9!

@dide Thanks very much Dianne, we know they would overfly our runway but they where gone in a flash, may be the worst shot of the Arrows ever posted on 365 project, lol:)
