Stratford-on-Avon, where Shakespeare was born.

The Nene is named after the River Nene in eastern England and pronounced "Neen" (not "Nennay"); the Avon is a river in the south west, pronounced "Ay-von" with a long "A" as in the words "Say" and "Pay".

Military Aviation History
2020-05-10 09:27:48 +0000 UTCHi, Bis, Thanks for showing an aircraft from my Dad's time flying (US aircraft). I'm betting that formation of 28 Hunters was the Red Arrows, RAF aerobatic team. I saw them in ... I think it was 1975, at Dulles Airport, outside Washington, DC, at a huge event called Transpo. The showiest part was the airshow, but there were bullet trains, a vertical stacking automat parking garage/conveyor for cars. And the Red Arrows were there, in a big formation, probably 10 aircraft, flying Folland Gnats, as I recall. Our family has 8mm color (silent) movie footage of them. Thanks for reminding me.
