Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

Thank god Morgan will finally be able to see the Tiger demo. Been posting for months how aggressive the display is. Can’t help it. It’s the one f16 display in Europe I haven’t seen yet Excluding Zeus it’s the same for me. I’m chuffed to bits with the announcement. Role on next Friday - even if they...

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

Cosford really needed that announcement. Very good update. On the topic of French Demo teams which ones are active this year? I’ve heard a lot that Colteau Delta aren’t active this year, but haven’t personally seen anything official so far? Not that I’m expecting them to come again but curious about...

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

Fantastic! It is the one European F16 Demo I haven't seen that is still around. Don't think Cosford will get anything from France sadly. There is a big show there that weekend. Rich Goodwin who is a regular at Cosford is also booked at the French show After a very brief look online at an Air show C...

What about the Polish f16 or M-346 demo, are these acts that ever display beyond Poland?
Can I say I called it?
You can - call a Rafale or another F16 now will you 😂

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

If it is I’ll be overjoyed. Cosford REALLY needed it. Had a joke with a family member that today would be her birthdays lucky announcement… really hoping I was correct. If so thank god for the Cosford organisers 😂

Re: RIAT 2025

I bet that the F4s get announced later. Will ask the squadron next month at phancon. Delusional, please don’t. Doesn’t hurt to ask does it? The worst they can say is oh we’re not coming this year. It's strongly encouraged for general public to not approach military operators about whether they can ...

Re: RIAT 2025

Spitfire duo = personally it will be a toilet break. Also disappointed with no f4s from Greece, I was holding on getting sanicole tickets, flights etc with hope that they would appear here, time to get booking! :/ to be fair, nothing about that announcement suggested that was all from Greece Indeed...

What about the RAF Band music performances? I seem to recall seeing a Performance of I vow to thee by a live band one year... Do they still do that or am I just thinking of something/ somewhere else?

Re: RIAT 2025

I think this was what my question was on on the Podcast - apparently that hardly ever happens and if something is found out on the second half of a week then their isn't time to prepare the social media/ gather photos so the update carries over anyway?

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

I guess that we can't keep comparing the "Peter Years" especially 2017-2019 to the current offering. From the outside the current team just want to "run an airshow" little passion or actual love for airshows involved. maybe they dont attend other airshows ? Im not sure if anyone...

Re: RAF Cosford Airshow 2025 - 8th June

I won't lie and be honest - I'd forgotten about them! They aren't exactly thrilling like a jet so too speak - but the do what they say on the tin and do it well. (From what I've heard from a mate I've never seen them) Still, they aren't exactly as in the same league as a Mirage pair are they? I know...

Re: RIAT 2025

Some people each year fall victim to their own delusions in which RIAT will bag Malaysian Flankers, Indian Jags, Vietnamese Fitters etc in abundance… And when it doesn’t match that, the toys put of the pram are well and truly thrown. Look at 2013, it wasn’t by no means a classic RIAT, but when the ...

Didn't they do similar for the Falcons with an Eagle emoji? My guess is that is the closest to a Typhoon they could find in emojis. Come 7pm I can see a whole lot of pissed off people it's not the Tornado lol. I do think it’s the typhoon, however according to the apple emoji search there is a typho...
