Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
It’s a looker, too, imo. In an age of boring grey lumps with low viz roundels, it’s always nice to see some camo.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
Slovenian PC-9 is a top addition in my book.
Encouraging comments re the Americans. US Army in particular.unless I’m having a brain fart, I think it’s been almost 10 years(?) since they participated in any meaningful way?

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
I agree, the Polish F-16 demo at Radom was a very competently flown display, and I think it was an improvement on previous years. It’ll be interesting to have a more legacy model (Danish) vs a newer version (Polish) together at the show. (On the assumption the Polish Demo is confirmed by RIAT etc)

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
If true, it’s been a few years since the Polish F-16 demo turned up (2016 & 18 come to mind). It’s certainly not a regular participant, so all the more welcome.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
Perhaps there’s a difference between “practice” and “validation”.

Re: Interesting Internet
Enjoy this sort of content from the Reds. Well-presented, interesting issue, short and to-the-point.

Imminent retirement of a type certainly focuses the mind in that regard!

Re: Interesting Internet
I could be wrong, but I don’t think a special coloured jet materially affects a nation’s warfighting capabilities (the special Dannebrog F-16, for instance, was used on a live QRA intercept of a Russian aircraft). And if this is indeed WTD61, it’s not even a frontline unit. It’s a test and developme...

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
A fine update. I enjoy the love that the Gripen gets. Easy to overlook, but it’s a very competent performer. The Alizé is also a lovely catch. Up there with the Turbo Firecat. German NH-90 also decent, amazing how quickly it’s become a reliable attendee after it took almost a decade to coax one over...

Not sure about some of those location pins, but FYI nevertheless. Happy hunting.
