The Red Arrows flew over the city this afternoon. They were performing somewhere in the region and the Doha display was an added extra. They few across and around the bay in their usual spectacular fashion.
Along the Corniche, the traffic slowed to a crawl as drivers watched and many double parked to be able to stop and watch.
I got a good view from the Museum of Islamic Art
Just when I thought it was finished and drove off in the car, the red planes flew away but then briefly returned with this huge fighter with fiery afterburners roared around the bay… then it was all over.
