This is actually the Blue Diamonds of 92 Sqn and the Tigers of 74 Sqn practicing for their amazing combined show at Farnborough 1962.

Blue Diamonds of 92 Squadron led by the late Squadron Leader Brian Mercer who had previously been one of the pilots of The Black Arrows pilots of Treble One Squadron.
