The Red Arrows wowed crowds on Thursday (July 25) after flying over the North East and North Yorkshire during a flight display.
The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team flew over large parts of North Yorkshire, and Darlington, with people even spotting them in West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire, as they made their way to and from the display.
Take a look as Red Arrows fly over North East during RAF Leeming display:

This sighting of the impressive flight team was part of a show at RAF Leeming - which saw a performance from the Red Arrows take place from 2.55pm-3.30pm.
As crowds built at RAF Leeming, the display began, with people in Northallerton catching a great glimpse of the display and the fly-past.
