Black Arrows
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Black Arrows, one of the predecessors of the current Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, the Red Arrows, were an aerobatic demonstration team formed in the 1950s from 111 Squadron (treble-one). One of the many memorable feats accomplished by the Black Arrows was the execution of a 22-plane formation loop in 1958, a photo of which can be seen on the externally-linked web page, and which remains on the record books to this day.
The Black Arrows flew Hawker Hunters and were based at RAF Wattisham in Suffolk.
