British Flying Aces to Put on Show over NYC

NEW YORK (AP) -- The British are coming! The British are coming!

The Royal Air Force aerobatic team, the Red Arrows, will be performing over the skies of New York City on Wednesday night.

Similar to the U.S. Navy Blue Angels or the Air Force Thunderbirds, the nine-pilot Red Arrows team is visiting the city as part of a North American goodwill tour.

The Red Arrows show begins over New York Harbor at 6:30 p.m. and continues for about a half hour.

At 6:58 p.m., the Red Arrows will perform a special flyby of the Statue of Liberty.

The best place for viewing the free show is on the shores of South Beach, on Staten Island.

I'll be heading out. Rare opportunity for me!

Hope the weather's good for you. If it's a nice evening you're in for a treat.

Certainly are! I gues living where i do and sort of seeing them on a day to day basis training you sort of forget just how extremly good they are - but seeing them in action is certainly a treat!

Enjoy it!
