The Ambassadors by Robert Tomlin. Flt Lt. Tim Couston and Flt Lt.

The Corkscrew by Robert Tomlin. The highlight of the annual Fowey Royal Regatta is undoubtedly the performance of the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team The Red Arrows. Each year the crowds flock to this historic Cornish seaside port to see the spectacular display. There are frequent visitors to the port of Fowey and as part of the 2005 celebrations the RFA Sir Galahad anchored in the river estuary. It provided a memorable backdrop fro the Reds seen here performing their 'Corkscrew' manoeuvre over this famous ship with the unmistakable landmarks of Fowey in the background. It is August 2005 and during another memorable evening, the Red Arrows displayed over the beautiful Fowey estuary in Cornwall, England, and the famous replica of RFA Sir Galahad which had moored during the Fowey Royal Regatta Week. The gypo part of the team perform an extremely difficult manoeuvre rolling around the smoke trails of a pair who fly together, one inverted above the other leaving a blaze of colour across the early evening sky. Many will remember the original Sir Galahad which was destroyed during the Falklands war in 1982 with the loss of many lives, and the appalling injuries suffered by Simon Weston who escaped barely alive from the carnage. He now forms part of a charity, Weston Spirit, which aims to help young people in inner cities. The new Sir Galahad is part of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and is 140.6m in length, with a breadth of 19.5m. She has a speed of 17 knots, with a complement of 49. She has one spot for a Sea King on the flight deck and on the vehicle deck, one spot for a Sea King, Lynx or Chinook. |
Fowey With Love by Robert Tomlin. The Royal Air Forces premier display team, the Red Arrows, performs dozens of displays in the UK and worldwide during a typical season and some display areas have more challenges and attractions for the team than perhaps others. One of the favourite venues is the little town of Fowey on the south coast of Cornwall, England, where the team demonstrate with awesome ability their skills and flying abilities. Amongst the best-loved of the manoeuvres is the Heart shape and this picture shows the Synchro pair scribing the heart in the sky at the end of the Fowey estuary, with the famous tug boat watching in the early evening sunshine. |
