Re: FRIAT 2025 Renewals

Re: FRIAT 2025 Renewals

Anybody else struggling to work the grandstand plan , I don't see any seat numbers when supposedly hovering over the seats , they all seem to be more or less one colour and inactive

Yes aviation diecast models are now at ridiculous prices not just Corgi but other superior brands , how they expect folk to constantly shell out at the prices is beyond me.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread

Ridiculous queue to get into Green Car Park on Saturday, only travelled 57 miles and the journey took 3.5 hours and finally got onsite at 10.15 after the F15 display 😔 They certainly sold out or over sold the tickets , far too many people on site I thought , like bloody ants ....... made it uncomfor...

Re: FRIAT 2024

Well last year a right twit brandishing the equivalent of the Hubble telescope on a dslr was giving people grief at the right hand side of the grandstand , telling people not to stand on the raised step area to take photos as aircraft took off during the display - and then proceeded to do that himse...

Re: FRIAT Stand Location 2025

Well if the intent is to move the FRIAT grandstand further along the crowd line in a crap direction and move it further back from the flightline , make it higher to assure a view based on photographic benefits for the folk who actually pay for it for that purpose , oh and while this disruption is co...

Re: SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo :: Wednesday

Great pictorial coverage , been a few times myself but not since 2013. To be honest the only major challenge are the thousands that decide to constantly shelter under wings etc to get some shade , making some unique items hard if not impossible to photograph. Good job we have cones , ropes and low l...
