Ray Hanna tribute

The maestro is gone and they salute him:
The Red Arrows have flown over a funeral in tribute to one of the pilots who made them famous.

Fantastic pilot who always thrilled us in whatever plane he flew - especially the MH434 Spitfire.

I can't believe he was 77 and still doing the business.
