BBC Radio 1 presenter Greg James has described his experience flying with the Red Arrows as “the greatest thing I’ve ever done”.
James’s flight with Squadron Leader Jon Bond of The Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, based at RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire, was part of a Children in Need Challenge.
The challenge, set by Pudsey Bear, saw James take to the skies as part of the “Challenge Yourself” initiative to raise funds for the charity.
The BBC Children in Need appeal show will air on BBC One on November 14th, hosted by celebrities including Paddy McGuinness and Vernon Kay.
