Having the JMSDF on ongoing, would love to get a return of the P-1. Can't believe it is .. but it has been 9 years since that debut
Yes agree, it would be nice for a P-1 to return, or may be they could be persuaded to send over one of their ShinMaywa US-2?

Re: FRIAT 2024

I got the log on details for the FRIAT members page on Aug 24th 2023 when I got the notification of the renewal process was ready to go ahead.

E-3 Hawkeye
Incredibly unlikely.
A French E-2 could be doable, plus you still have the carrier fleet in the European Area, tho they must be a tiny bit busy currently..
Sorry, my error, should have been E-2

Re: FRIAT 2024

Thanks chaps, I'll decide closer to the date. Parking in Swindon and getting the bus has worked well for the last couple of years, just need to find a way of getting a bus ticket as a FRIAT person. P&V days I'll drive as usual. Think you can buy a shuttle bus ticket at the bus station Yup, You ...

Re: FRIAT 2024

Has everyone been sent their payment renewal details yet? I received the e-mail saying "everyone should have received" and if you haven't send an e-mail to Wendy. I hadn't, so I have, and I still haven't received any reply nearly a fortnight later. Talk about making an absolute arse of a ...

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread

An update on the 16th with one of the themes being the 50th anniversary of the F-16, interesting! It’s not the Thunderbirds as they’re down for the Artic Thunder airshow on the day of RIAT! The list at the moment for the Thunderbirds appearances is a preliminary one only. On the schedule it states ...

Re: FRIAT 2024

There were a number of unsold seats last year and I think they were being sold close to the show so I suspect you should be ok. If the seating plan was accurate I estimated there were at least 400 unsold pre-show (I've certainly never known so much space around me) - with the increase in price, and...

Re: Best Grandstand seat for FRIAT 2024

Also I would add that if you are worried about the back drop of your pictures, FRIAT isn't necessarily the best choice anymore (assuming the construction equipment is still there by show time next year). it's meant to be gone by next year i believe Looking at the videos of the B-1's that are there ...

Re: FRIAT 2024

Extending the payment deadline does make sense, although holding seats until January will make it more difficult for those that might want to switch seats. I think the deadline for changing seats without paying an admin charge of £25 needs to be extended from 16th October (in 5 days time). Despite ...

Re: RIAT 2023 wish list

The Irish Air Corps recieved it's first C295 yesterday, would be nice for them to show it off at RIAT! maybe side by side with a, soon to be replaced, C235 showing the old and new, . Not much hope though. Would be great to see both. But I think the C295 is off to Shannon for a paint job before ente...

I'm shocked there is yet no NATO E3 Sentry confirmation so it can cancel a week later
Wasn't there one year (possibly 2015) that one had cancelled and then turned up out of the blue on the Friday after all?

Re: RIAT 2023 wish list

I wonder when the B-'s are going back to the states? if its a week or 2 before RIAT maybe they could delay sending the C-5 over to collect their gear and arrive and go on static for the show then go back after? ....one can but hope!!

I started seeing posts on RIAT's Facebook from people protesting the addition of the Argentine B737, maybe it was deemed too risky to attend. I was thinking that as well. With all the negative comments on Facebook and other social media about the name Las Malvinas being on the side of the plane and...
