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. What are the 'normal' day movements like for Tiger Meets? Herby at Scramble mentioning the following and he knows well: The participants wil...

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 ...

Re: Sywell Airshow 2024
Looking good. I know it's very early days but anyone know of the show layout yet? If they follow the same as the cancelled legends it could be very good with the crowd line offset from the runway, being more E-W, avoiding the small trading estate to the West.
