I heard it was sometime in April so anytime now I would imagine!

Are you visiting RIAT also? Personally I think unless you have an specific interest in the trade aspect they are too close and too similar to do both and out of the two RIAT is the far superior show.

One thing I noticed from the 2008 show over any other airshow I have been too, although it is a growing aspect of the airshow scene , was the rudeness and inconsiderate attitude of the crowd. All shows have their annoying crowd members but at Farnborough it was noticably different.
Was once Liveforriat2007 but that wasnt a great year so Ive decided to simply live for RIAT period.

How about the Pakistan/Chinese JF-17 Thunder for starters, down to fly too :wink:

787 will arrive Sunday before show, should depart Tuesday. Attendance still dependant on test schedule though.

So I think there's a good chance we will see the A400, C27 and JF17 at RIAT also or am I wrong?
Where did you find that participants-list?

RAF typhoon is only displaying Mon/Tues? Pretty sure the F-22 is doing the same thing as in 2008.

JF-17 was announced at the media day, although the Pakistan AF has said a while ago that they would be sending aircraft.

No mention of whether they would still be there for the public days, but as I suspect they will be arriving in an An124, I would suspect that they will be.
