Re: RIAT 2019
I was told it’s only for today in P&V West. The RIAT man said they’d make a decision on tomorrow depending on how busy it is. If you use West on Monday it will be back to normal with stepladders only allowed in the designated area. It’s working perfectly well today though & should be the nor...

Re: RIAT 2019
& there’s no need to worry about the barriers in P&V West. You’ll be plenty close enough so big lenses not required. Common sense has prevailed today as well with stepladders allowed 5m from the fence line. Decision made as it’s not crowded. Stepladder enclosure is similar size to last year....

Re: MotoGP Silverstone
Excellent photos. Interested to know which corners these were taken from, particularly photo 2 & 5 (Marquez), 3 & 9 (Lorenzo) & 6 (Pedrosa). Thanks

Re: 09 arrivals
From my experience of arrivals at P&V West, most of those with stepladders position themselves far enough back from the fence & photograph over the top of those at the front. Never had a problem myself.

Thanks but such a shame that another decent viewing area for watching the pilots/ground crew getting ready & the aircraft taxiing out/in has been lost.

Re: RIAT 2017 (Discussion & Participation Thread)
Does anyone know if there has been any official confirmation as to whether the flying display fighter aircraft will be parked down the western end as in previous years (like Ramex Delta last year). Tried the west last year after 10+ years of always going east & thoroughly enjoyed it!
Thanks
Thanks

Re: FRIAT Grandstand Seating Plan 2016
I'm always standing on the grass to the left of the enclosure for the same reason - extra space when using a 500mm lens. I only use my seat for departures but noticed that the space between the seats wasn't as good as previous years. There was also no room on Row A to put your bag behind the seat as...

Re: Northolt Night Photoshoot XIX 100th Anniversary-2
Personally, I thought there was plenty of opportunity during the evening to get a clear photo of the Belgium from the front. You just had to bide your time. When I arrived in the car park I was also concerned about the parking of the aircraft but as has been said, the reason for this was made perfec...

Re: Shuttleworth Uncovered 4 October 2015
For info. SVAS members will not be able to purchase on the day unlike the last time the Vulcan was at OW. Purchased my ticket today & they were saying tickets will be limited so you'd better get your ticket sooner rather than later.

That opening pairs shot is stunning. Lovely set.
Do you know if this was just a one off or are there plans to display them as a pair at any other shows?

Re: Military Pageant Sunday 5th July
Another great Sunday at OW. Excellent organisation - in and parked up by just after 8:30. No problems getting out once the Seafire had departed. Strange seeing OW that busy so early on in the day but should be a well deserved payday for them. Star of the show was the Blenheim - superbly flown & ...

Pro's: This year I took a friend who was disabled so able to use his blue badge which meant I was parked down the station end for the first time. Quickest I've ever got on/off the airfield since I started going which I think was 2008. Parked up by 07:15 and out within 5 mins of moving the car at 18:...

Bloody hell, what a set. Fantastic.
I'd echo the comments above but also really like the Talon and the Seakings.
