The RAF display team delighted crowds attending the Carnival on Thursday as Red Arrows turn the sky true union jack colours.

Mary Mugford, of Dawlish Town Council, stated: "I don't think there is a carnival anywhere in the South West which has an aerobatics display like this one."

"We have had some wet days this week but fortunately when the Red Arrows came the sky was blue and the sun came out.

"They are a truly amazing sight and the display really took people's breath away."

The Red Arrows were joined by helicopters, fighter jets and Battle of Britain display teams. Organisers say the event is now one of the best attended in the South West and tens of thousands watched the display.
