Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

Depends, the museum is miles away from the display line, but if you fancy an afternoon watching whatever practices (if there are any, sometimes military demos get practices done on Friday) then it’s fine.

I’d recommend train station; it’s much closer.

Re: Radom Airshow - 30-31 August 2025

The website did say the MiG-29, F-16, and Su-22 would be “in the air” last night because I shared a screenshot with the UKAR guys, but I can’t find it mentioned now, and now says similar in relation to static So odds on that a Su-22 will be there in some capacity. In 2023 it was a brief few energeti...

Re: RIAT 2025

Separately; I saw a press release that tickets are selling out in record numbers.

That’s the earliest I’ve seen a ticket warning that I remember (save maybe for 2018 but that could be an outlier?). Good news for RIAT, less good for those who want flexibility.

Re: RIAT 2025

Quick reminder, we don’t officially condone reselling RIAT tickets on this forum, and I think the act of doing so is against RIAT’s standard terms (but check for yourself as I can’t confirm this). Of course, if you want to do it privately or somewhere not on UKAR, obviously that’s a matter for the y...

Participation list here: https://airvg.info/zrakoplovi-na-airvg2025/

Static participants only so far, but flying TBC.

Cool to see a CL-415 on there, as well as pretty much the whole Croat fleet, including a MiG-21.

Re: RIAT 2025

Debating the merits of seeing Mirage 2000s vs F-4s, to say nothing of F-16s (and, going further back, A-7s and RF-4s) just goes to show, in my opinion, how well the Greeks support RIAT. Fantastic stuff. Particularly when air forces usually seem to want to send all their new shiny kit, rather than th...
