Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
As nice as OW's Chippy is, there is one knocking around with the proper bubble canopy, or at least there was. Just sayin'...

Re: Sywell Airshow 2024
The sun will be directly down the runway at around 1510, and then it will gradually move so that you're facing into it as the afternoon / evening go on. I was hoping that this wouldn't be the case, but i guess it is what it is. From what i can work out, if the aircraft do fly a topside in from the ...

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
You might know exactly but as a quick guesstimate - with over 40 years of F-16s at IAT at say 10-20 examples a year on average ( flying, spares and static) . Must be over 500 total F-16 appearances - pushing toward 1000? Go on , I'm game! Your numbers aren't far out by my reckoning, First appeared ...

Re: NATO Tiger Meet 2024
I can't make the open days (and tickets have already sold out) but seeing how easy it was to get over there for Air Defender I'm considering a couple of days.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
The Firecat is a really lovely little gem. Midnight Hawks are lovely too. As awesome as the F-18C is from them, for the sake of variety, it’s nice to have that team back. With them, the Reds, and rumoured Saudis, it’s nice to see so many legacy Hawks in the air for the (unofficial) Hawk 50th year. ...

Re: Goodbye to the Belgian F-16 Display
Did they have two demo pilots between '88 and '96 or is that list incorrect? They frequently had 2 display pilots, particularly during the '90s/early '00s when we were literally tripping over airshows. Usually different wings - 1Wing with 349/350 Sqns started the displays with 10 Wing (23 & 31 ...
