If an aircraft goes tech before a display, Red 10 can be used, but once airborne if a pilot has to leave the formation due to birdstrike of other failure then the rest have to carry on without.
If you were watching a display that included Red 10 from the start, you probably wouldn't notice.
Oh thats why then if there already airborne they wont wait for the spare aircraft
Does red 10 fly the spare hawk but his real job is display commentator.
And garry here is your answer ;-)
