Mr Huckle said: “The team need durable quality footwear that will withstand all the elements come rain or shine, we are extremely grateful for the support of YDS.”
After presenting the boots at the team’s base in Lincolnshire, Abigail stuck around for a mini air demonstration.
She said: “I had the pleasure of seeing a practice display at RAF Coningsby and even on that very blustery day the defiant Typhoon performed some unbelievable loops and twists, flips and turns – it was fantastic to see.
