Re: Air Forces Monthly "Showbiz" Thread
Tommy, what's happening in AFM to the Showbiz articles? Not been any in the last 2 AFM and they are missed (and particularly part 2 of the RIAT article)

Re: Interesting Internet (Historic Aviation)
For those interested in historic aviation the discussion between Richard Grace and Kermit Weeks on the Tempest wings and restoration issues is fascinating. Well worth watching

Re: Picture Of The Week #90, Retired since 2010
Well it's frightening how many aircraft types have been retired in the last 14 years and to limit the choice I have just chosen from US Armed forces aircraft. Retired fully in 2015 (several were kept for 6 years in VX-20 as test aircraft https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53474490190_8aff5565af_h.j...

Re: Topic of the Week#82 Panavia Tornado
Dear All, thanks for the great submissions. Really like Keith's evening pic of the GR1, Andrew's moody pair and Tommy's low level in the snow.
But my choice is (partly due to envy) is Mark's (rebel14) pick of Pinky well caught with just enough sun and a great clean backdrop.
Over to you Mark

Re: Oshkosh 2023
I have been to Oshkosh 4 times and once to University accommodation. The accommodation had pluses-outlined by GeorgeP but personally sharing showers/WC's and plastic sheeted mattress without A/C was not for me. It's a tricky choice in that the alternatives in a hotel are either very expensive and/or...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread
I have just read Tom Jones's UKAR RIAT report and it is absolutely spot on.This RIAT was my 30th and one has to, sadly, move on from the 90's-those airshow days are gone. RIAT pulled some aviation gems out of the hat-Tom covered that way better than I could. I feel for those who could only attend on...

Re: Oshkosh 2023
George look forward to seeing your Oshkosh pics. The p47 display looked awesome and would have loved to see the Connie and Guppy flying. Photography conditions looked challenging at times with the haze from the Canadian wildfires.

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread
As background I have been to every RIAT since 1993 and aviation times have changed hugely over that time. Little point in revisiting RIAT of 10 or 20 years ago (although if one is interested I can highly recommend the RIAT 50th Anniversary book). We are so lucky to have RIAT and I am unsure if there...
