Unfortunately not. I do like the porter but at a venue like RIAT… meh

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
I see Austria is 'ongoing' - more likely to come in a Zeltweg year when they have displays worked up. Shame the RAF don't support Zeltweg really - would help the case with a bit of tit for tat swapping I'm sure. The QRA Pair of Typhoons is awesome but the Austrians have other displays - for example...

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
Guess you can lay down the camera and have a relaxed time at future airshows then.
I can comprehend some of your personal views though, apart from front or topside angles the F-35 is not very aesthetically pleasing imho.

Thanks for the kind words guys, much appreciated :-) @Mic: Pat Suisse shots are from opposite the crowd line across the river from the public walking path in the fields.

Re: RIAT 2024 wishlist.
Would love to see that Austrian demo again or any similar demo from other nations which act out a high intensity qra with multiple aircraft Good chances for Austrian participation I’d assume as it is an Airpower year, they are always more active on the circuit abroad when a Zeltweg show takes place...

ZigAirMeet 2023, Mountain Airshow Action - 18/19 August (updated!)
Hey everyone, four years have passed since the last edition of this airshow and just like in 2019 it did not disappoint. While the show ground and the event itself is rather small compared to shows like RIAT or Zeltweg it manages to attract some of the well known display acts of the European airshow...

Yep was there too, decided to attend regardless of participants after having been there 2019 for the first time (just a 2,5h drive so a no-brainer for me). Quite a place for an airshow, hard to imagine fast jets being thrown around there when you see that narrow valley for the first time. And the di...

Guess no one’s gonna miss you at future RIATs, looks like your good-bye is a win-win.
Hope you have a nice Sunday evening after the absolutely horrible experiences you had to face.

Not your everyday winterchater
You'd expect a ton of TUI 737s or EasyJet A320s at Innsbruck at this time of the year but definitely not todays special visitor. Unfortunately turned up 10 mins too early (despite delay) to catch some sunlight on approach but the departure made up for that so I won't complain. Quite a sight and soun...

10th edition of AirPower in Zeltweg, Austria
Hey everybody, The 22 event marked the 10th anniversary of "Airpower" held in Zeltweg, Austria. As always the venue was organized very well and managed to attract quite a few interesting aircraft. Obviously the Croatian MiG-21 was the star item of the flying display in terms of rareness, a...

Re: A taste of Air Power
Superb shots thank you for sharing !! I really like the helicopter pics especially. Agree on most things you mentioned. Being a free show is on the cons side for me, not because I like to spend money but because the party people not really interested in aviation would not appear if there was an entr...

Re: AIRPOWER22 - Zeltweg, Austria
Display programme seems to be incomplete, definitely missing is the Austrian helicopter part (Blackhawk, Bell 212, Kiowa) - these are listed as flying in the participants list and I expect the usual “airfield attack/evacuation” demo. Also the Italian and German EFs seem to be static both, so only Au...

I‘ll try to answer some questions: - I would not expect too many updates from now on in the flying, it does look pretty full already with 8 fast jets, some teams and all the Austrian/Red Bull stuff plus a few warbirds. I heard that Patrulla Águila is due to come but since I can’t find their 22 sched...

Re: AIRPOWER22 - Zeltweg, Austria
To be fair that’s not true in terms of static display…. and the Croatian MiG does not have a long way. I believe it when it’s on approach though.bobby 1211 wrote: ↑Thu 04 Aug 2022, 4:14 pmThis line-up is so much better than what was at RIAT this year.

Croatian MIG-21 in the list as flying now, Polish SU-22 static. MiG-15 listed as flying now as well. German EF is static, Italian EF flying. Don’t know about the Polish F-16… Thursday access in the east for approaches is easy but be aware that the road „Flatschach“ is closed off right under the flig...
