Agree about the VC10 and an A-10 from Spanghalem would be great too. Both dying breeds for the UK enthusiast.

Wouldn't mind seeing some countries that are associated with the Diamond Jubilee such as Australia, Canada and Malta added to the mix as well as maybe India or Malaysia.

Would also like to see the Sea Vixen make her full flying display debut at RIAT this year!

Farnborough is very easy to get to by train and it's not that far, about an hour away. If you would like to see the SU-27 fly I'd look at getting the train to Farnborough if I were you. :smile:

Yes but the Russian knights havent been in the UK since 1991 and after this year probably wont be back again for a very long while so it would be nice for them to come to RIAT.
