The second day of the annual Whitby Regatta saw the Red Arrows take centre stage.
The Red Arrows are one of the world's premier aerobatic display teams representing the speed, agility and precision of the Royal Air Force.
They flew over on Sunday at 5:10pm.
Whitby Regatta Chairman, Ivor Greer, speaking before the display, hoped that having the Red Arrows would bring even more people to the event.
Flying distinctive Hawk fast-jets, the team is made up of pilots, engineers and essential support staff with frontline, operational experience. Together, they demonstrate the excellence and capabilities of the Royal Air Force and the Service's skilled, talented people.
Often performing their trademark Diamond Nine Shape, and a combination of close formations and precision flying, the Red Arrows have been displaying since 1965.
Ivor Greer said that people would have a great view of the aerobatic display.
All Red Arrows display pilots have flown operationally, in frontline aircraft such as the advanced typhoon, and help the Royal Air Force to secure the skies every day of the year.
The RAF Battle of Britain Lancaster flew over the town for the second day in a row.
