Officially named the Irving-Napier Special, Golden Arrow was designed by Captain J S Irving. It was built in the KLG
Spark Plugs factory in West London with support from many leading British companies. Power came from a Napier W12 Lion aero engine as used in Supermarine Schneider Trophy seaplanes. Irving hoped that Golden Arrow would be capable of 250mph.
11th March 1929: Segrave made his two timed runs through the measured mile; 15.55 seconds on the first run, 15.57 on the second on Daytona Beach. The speed of 231.446mph exceeded Keech’s record by 24mph
Non-standard arrows along old US 81 south of McPherson, Kansas. 81 now follows Interstate 135 in this area, so the old highway is county maintained.

We were curious if a Belegarth arrow was powerful enough to trigger the dunk tank target. Although I do not have a picture, it can be done!

The Red Arrows, officially known as the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, is the aerobatics display team of the Royal Air Force based at RAF Scampton. The team was formed in late 1964 as an all-RAF team, replacing a number of unofficial teams that had been sponsored by RAF commands.
The Red Arrows badge shows the aircraft in their trademark diamond nine formation, with the motto Éclat, a French word meaning "brilliance" or "excellence".
Initially, they were equipped with seven Folland Gnat trainers inherited from the RAF Yellowjacks display team. This aircraft was chosen because it was less expensive to operate than front-line fighters. In their first season, they flew at 65 shows across Europe. In 1966, the team was increased to nine members, enabling them to develop their Diamond Nine formation. In late 1979, they switched to the BAE Hawk trainer. The Red Arrows have performed over 4,000 displays worldwide in 52 countries.

Taken at the 2003 Autumn Airshow at Duxford, near Cambridge, showing four Hawks of the RAF Red Arrows aerobatic display team almost paralleling a bright upper tangent arc above the Sun. A fainter 22 degree halo is also visible, as is a parhelion (sundog) and the start of the parhelic circle.
Has also been published online at Les Cowley's Optics Picture of the Day (OPOD) website at www.atoptics.co.uk/fz683.htm, which also gives some additional information on how the haloes and arcs are formed.
