Wings meet wheels in the Isle of Man

The Blades Aerobatic Display Team are bringing wings to wheels at TT 2012. As well as superbikes, the Isle of Man will play host to high-speed thrills of a slightly different kind as it welcomes The Blades to the line-up.

All former Red Arrows, The Blades will perform their dynamic 15-minute display at Laxey and Douglas Bay on Thursday 7th June.

Flying at combined speeds of over 400mph the display includes high-speed opposition passes, 10g close-formation breaks, tumbling and rolling manoeuvres.
