Metcalf Farms said: “We had the pleasure of moving two retired Red Arrows from RAF Scampton, home of the Red Arrows since 1983 — one of the station’s longest-standing flying units.”

“We’ve returned them to Washfold Farm for temporary storage until their new owners come forward. You could be the one!”
