This marks the start of the teams "Exercise Springhawk", a two month detachment to RAF Akrotiri. The purpose of the exercise is for the team to continue training in order to get their display to the highest standard before it was flown in front of the public during the summer display season. RAFAT traditionally travel to Cyprus because the weather conditions are perfect for flying, and RAF Akrotiri provides many different display sites for them to practice at. At the end of the detachment the team will display in front of The Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) in order to pass a Public Display Authority (PDA). At this point the pilots will wear their famous red suits and the display season will begin.
