In 2008 the Red Arrows made a 3 stop tour to North America.  I was able to see them in Quebec City and Quonset Point, Rhode Island.  They put on a fantastic show.
	The team starts the show with a burst of red, white, and blue smoke.
Takeoff is in 3 sections of 3, 2, and 4.
After forming up the flying part of the show starts with the team approaching the crowd from behind.
	The Red Arrows are constantly rolling and changing formations.
	Lancaster formation
	More shots of the entire team.
In the second half of the show the team breaks up into separate groups. This provides lots of head-on pass shots.
The team makes great use of colored (coloured?) smoke.  Each aircraft has 1 minute of red smoke, 1 minute of blue smoke, and 4 minutes of white smoke.
Echelon.
The most dynamic maneuver of the show.
	A very unique break for landing.
	A precision formation by the ground crew.
