Red Arrows to fly over Wiltshire today – here’s when and where to spot them

The Red Arrows will fly over Wiltshire en route to an air show in Devon today (27 August).

Ahead of a 6.30pm display in Sidmouth, the jets will touch down at Exeter Airport shortly after 4pm – but before that, we’ll get to see them here.

The planes will leave Norwich International Airport to head to Devon at 3.35pm, passing over Wiltshire as they head to the southwest coast.

Swindon and east Wiltshire will miss out on a view of the inadvertent show, but much of west Wiltshire will be able to catch a short glimse as they jet through the skies.

If you’re really keen on spotting the famous red jets, and can’t see them from home, you could head out to one of the locations listed – camera at the ready, of course.

Here’s where and when you’ll be able to spot them:

• Directly over Cirencester at approximately 3.58pm
• Between Malmesbury and Brinkworth/Minety at approximately 4pm
• Just north and west of Chippenham at approximately 4.01pm
• Directly over Corsham at approximately 4.02pm
• Just west of Bradford on Avon at approximately 4.03pm
• Just west of Frome at approximately 4.04pm
• Just west of Mere at approximately 4.05pm
