Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

Not getting my hopes up for todays update considering how good the one on Tuesday was! Guessing a Slovenian PC-9, Brazilian KC-390 and US Navy Poseidon. Patience, all this negativity. Patience? That surely means you have inside info and the Iranian F-14's will be confirmed today. (Flying Sunday only)

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

Already said they hope to announce RAF stuff tomorrow, maybe add in the Irish and more civilian on static. Would love the Irish to be the CASA as not long left for it. French Navy Rafele pair though would be great. There is a 'Wish List' thread - next person to put on here what they would like on a...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

Is the Rafale tanker flypast not just a Rafale refuelling from a Rafale? The M has the capability, not sure about the B or C? Where are you picking up the "Rafale tanker flypast" from? Is there a link to a website that says that? The only quote I can see is about a Rafale solo and a tanke...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

If you look at it from a retirement perspective - the Danish and Belgian F-16s will probably be retired before the Spanish Harriers. The Belgians already confirming they’re not replacing the F-16 demo with an F-35 demo - that day is going to be a massive loss to the European airshow circuit. That w...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

I remember the Danish F-16 being a little weak of a display back in 11 though I think the weather was a bit rough then though - a most welcome addition as is any F-16 display nonetheless. Superb news about the Matadors, pity it was leaked beforehand, but what can you do. Gutted about the Austrians, ...

Re: FRIAT Forum

Thanks Andy. While it might mean nothing, RIAT have been using the Frecce Tricolori in adverts on FB quite a bit recently. So it would be great to have the Italian Air Force 100 as a theme. Sounded like Frecce are full on in Italy this year, but they are trying to get Italian Air Force representati...

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread

Just had a look at the Air Tattoo ticket site for next year and it seems there is no Super Early Bird option for Saturday, unless you want to use the shuttle bus from Swindon. Does anybody know if this is intentional? I bought two super early bird tickets for Saturday without the bus earlier today....

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread

Really enjoyed the show on the Saturday. Left just after the Black Eagles as had a long drive home so missed a few items but not the end of the world. In terms of variety, absolutely fantastic. I am not a huge fan of trainers or helicopters but enjoyed pretty much all the displays. Special mentions ...

We are going to Krakow next week.

I'll be interested to see any aircraft, I know what is already based there. Hoping for fighter jets but I know they are not a common visitor there.

Beautiful city is Krakow.

Just an absolutely great update really whichever way you look at it. It wouldn't be RIAT without the Jordanian Herc. Let 410s are great little rarities. The PC9 display is fantastic. The Spanish F-18 is a great display and always good to get multiple Hornets. The BAF F-16 is a great display often t...
