  • Hawk jets of the Red Arrows, Britain's RAF aerobatic team practice display using an old ship wreck as display datum (centre). Looking out to the Mediterranean Sea from the Akrotiri Peninsular, Cyprus, we see the elite team, practising their display, a show-stopping manoeuvre of their 25-minute air show display routine. A rusted and crumbling hulk of a ship lies in the shallow surf and the Hawk jets used by the Red Arrows fan out above it using red, white and blue smoke. The shipwreck's remains provide a sad foreground to the dynamic flying beyond making a graphic landscape. 'Datum' is an axis on which the Red Arrows focus their displays, from where the whole show is visible at the crowd's centre. 'The Wreck' is but one of a series of datum points selected by the team leader at short notice to simulate diverse geographical features and wind directions

  • Hawk jets of the Red Arrows, Britain's RAF aerobatic team display over beach using quad bikes as display datum (centre). Passing overhead, there are two beach guards sitting just 100 feet below the passing jets who perform in front of an unseen crowd behind the sands. The team are using this coastal reference point as display datum (centre) during their display, a show-stopping manoeuvre of their 25-minute air show display routine. 'Datum' is an axis on which the Red Arrows focus their displays, from where the whole show is visible at the crowd's centre. The bikes are but one of a series of datum points selected by the team leader as a geographical point from which to navigate. Since 1965 the squadron has flown over 4,000 shows in 52 countries an important part of Britain's summer events where they perform their manoeuvres in front of massed crowds.

  • The Red Arrows, Britain's RAF aerobatic team, perform their public display over a lake and boating landscape. A family stay still below the elite team as they perform their display on one of the UK's most beautiful locations in norhern England. The team are using the lake as a reference point as display datum (centre) during their display, a show-stopping manoeuvre of their 25-minute air show display routine.

  • Hawk jets of the Red Arrows, Britain's RAF aerobatic team practice display over a pilot officer who sits in his cool car on the cliff edge at RAF Akrotiri, a British-run RAF air base in southern Cyprus, using this coastal cliff as display datum (centre). Looking out to the Mediterranean Sea from the Akrotiri Peninsular, Cyprus, we see the elite team, practising their display, a show-stopping manoeuvre of their 25-minute air show display routine.

  • Large cracks have appeared in brickwork of a church in Toxteth, Liverpool, England. Vertical splits in the exterior wall of the building are causing major dangers to its window and stone alongside the drainpipe. Ground subsidence is the motion of a surface (usually, the Earth's surface) as it shifts downward relative to a datum such as sea-level.
