Quite a good display!

They were at Waddo in 2005 as well and have been at IAT in 1998 and 1999. Nothing too spectacular, a MiG 29 display would have been a little bit more enjoyable. :biggrin:

Thanks all. I wasn't at Waddo in 09, normally clashes with cadet stuff, this year is different for a change. Looking forward too it.

I've been going to Waddo since 2009 and this year's show looks set to be the best I've been to by miles- it really looks like the show is returning to the superb form it showed in the late 1990s/early 2000s.

Excellent to see the Team Orlik returning- enjoyed their display in 2009. :clap:

I wonder what else the Waddo team has up their sleeves for us! :drool:

Team Orlik now confirmed on the Waddington website :cool:

I'm hoping that the 'Ongoing' negotiations with Thailand are to do with getting the Thai Air Force F-16 Solo Display Team over!!!

Maybe there are saving that for RIAT???

by **JJC** on Fri 30 Mar 2012, 4:14 pm

And AAC Apache x2 for a role demo :smile:

by **sismore** on Fri 30 Mar 2012, 4:15 pm

Apache flying too :rock:

by **bjturner1981** on Fri 30 Mar 2012, 5:25 pm

Some great additions to the line up today with the Polish display team and Army Air Corp Apaches flying! Hopefully there will be further intersting additions to come. I'd love to see a Polish Mig 29 or Su-22 in the static display if they won't be flying! Anyway i'm looking forward to further additions to the flying and static displays over the next few weeks and months. Top work by the organisers!! :biggrin:

According to the RIAT page, The B52 will be based at Fairford, and performing its flypasts at Waddington and Avord before returning to Fairford. Is there any chance of having it fly on both days. Maybe the thread on the RIAT page is incorrect.

by **PeterR** on Fri 30 Mar 2012, 8:48 pm

It'll be doing the flypasts at Waddington/Avord on the way to Fairford (from the US) on the Sunday, where it will land and stay until RIAT the following weekend, and then it'll head back home to the US.

More likely to do with Thai Gripens, currently in Sweden.

by **scotthldr** on Sat 31 Mar 2012, 2:26 pm

Are they even built yet?

by **craig.mason** on Sat 31 Mar 2012, 4:15 pm

The Apache is yet another good edition to the flying display last years display

by **JJC** on Sat 31 Mar 2012, 6:20 pm

I thought Orlik were normally a 9-ship team?

The Team have been a 9-ship in the past but BossMan's link from page 11, they are a 6-ship for 2012.

I believe the Swedish AF Historic Flight are eager to display their gorgeous classic jets in the UK... :wink:

Draken or Viggen please!

The Golden apple operation machines F-86 Sabre has Waddington on their calendar, just needs to be comifrmed :smile:

by **DeanW** on Tue 03 Apr 2012, 9:02 am

As always, take Golden Apple's calendar with a pinch of salt unless it's been confirmed by the airshow.

by **DeanW** on Tue 03 Apr 2012, 9:23 am

Taken from the Waddo Facebook group..

Flying Display Participant: Royal Netherlands Air Force F16 (F)
