Two residents of Neale Court Care Home in Lincoln had their wishes fulfilled when they were given the opportunity to see the Red Arrows up close on the Coronation.
The request caught the attention of Steve Kelly, the Chief technician at RAF Red Arrows, who graciously invited Alan and Laurie to visit RAF Waddington and meet the Red Arrows team. Alan, 94, worked for the RAF for forty years, beginning his career as a radar engineer where he was based at RAF North Luffenham and also served two tours in Cyprus. He likes to tell people that he was in the Royal Air Force for ten years before he got near an aeroplane.
Laurie said: “It was amazing, I loved it. Those guys continue to do a good job like we did. It has been a brilliant day."
