The Red Arrows will be visiting Glasgow Prestwick Airport today.
The airport warned trainspotters to get ready to see the famous flyers at around 2.50pm.
A statement by the airport yesterday said: "We are pleased to confirm that the Red Arrows will be visiting Glasgow Prestwick Airport tomorrow, June 18, arriving around 2:50pm.
"More information will be posted soon, please keep a lookout for this."
The airport later revealed that there would be no air display and the Red Arrows would be landing only.
A statement added: "Spectators wishing to view the arrival of these spectacular aircraft can do so from many vantage points including Troon and Prestwick beaches.
"Free parking will be available in Car Park 3 for spectators, we urge that you do not park on main roads or residential areas - vehicles will be moved on. Please respect our neighbours in Monkton and Prestwick."
The Red Arrows have a prominent place in British popular culture, with their aerobatic displays a fixture of summer events.
The badge of the Red Arrows shows the aircraft in their trademark diamond nine formation, with the motto Éclat, a French word meaning "brilliance" or "excellence".
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
