It took more than a year for a formal inquiry to be launched into claims of a “toxic culture” in the Red Arrows that saw women plied with alcohol, treated like property and harassed for sex, a whistleblower has claimed.
Four former members of the squadron – including three women and a man – have condemned the RAF’s internal investigation into the crisis and said the secretive nature of the non-statutory inquiry had inflicted a “second wound”, according to the Sky News documentary Untouchable: Inside the Red Arrows.
