Re: Update 24/04
As I am not familiar with it, how possible is a Harrier display from Navy on RIAT? Or includes no RAF harrier display also no Navy display?
Re: Update 24/04
[quote="Harlequin67"[Sarcasm mode off] Once again in difficult financial circumstances and following the rain soaked 2008 I think this is another great line-up getting better all the time. I for one am extremely happy with any and every aircraft that turns up. I too would love to see some odd and weird and downright impossible (German Mig 29...anyone?), but I know that it is less likely now than for many RIATs gone.
Keep up the good work all RIAT'er air ops and diplomatic staff! RIAT always gets the gems, long may it continue.
One final piece of advice for all aviation people is, if you really want to see something go to the country it comes from, now.
The credit crunch will get worse, the pound will sink until the interest rates rise to a height you won't be able to service your loans. Go now before something stops you.
Last year was illness for me and now something that has happened to my daughter that will in all likelyhood divert enormous amounts of money from avaition activities. Don't sit there and regret not doing those trips and things.[/quote]
very well said, I have already said that I for one am happy with what is already listed for RIAT, and I hope Harlequin67 that all will be OK with your daughter, lets all look forward to a successful, and above all sunny RIAT and enough of this sillyness.

The F-22 Raptor dates have been posted. Only one show in July so far, it's not RIAT though.

Re: Update 24/04
The one Raptor date in July is already published since weeks.

And with dates of 25./26. it is not really said there cannot be a display in UK on 18./19. ?
Looks like no A-10 demo possible. And neither Navy F-18... F-15C is still possible, but I do not even believe this... But who cares, we have a great USAF static...

Re: Update 24/04
Which USAF F-15C team could come over in July then? F-15C West is standing down in May, so they don't have a C-model demo left
