Keep your eyes to the skies - the Red Arrows are coming.

The iconic aerobatic display team will be passing over Cheshire this week.

They are travelling from RAF Waddington in Lincoln to RAF Valley in Anglesey ahead of a display at the Isle of Man TT Races on Thursday afternoon, June 4.

Travelling east to west, they will be sighted just south of Alsager and Kidsgrove before passing between Nantwich and Crewe.

This will be shortly after 3.34pm, with the crew expected to reach a waypoint just east of Wrexham at 3.46pm.

On Friday, June 5, the Red Arrows will make the return journey, flying close to Sandbach and Congleton along the way.

Residents in these towns should keep their eyes peeled at 11.48am, at which point the display team are expected to reach a way point north east of Sandbach.

Below, you will find maps of the two routes.

I’ve waited since 11;30 as planes were due to be expected at 11:48 passing Sandbach and had no sighting of them. They were due back in Haddington at 12. It’s now 12:02
