Re: Four days in and around RIAT 2023
Thanks all. Steve, yes I turned up and bought a ticket on the gate on the Monday. I'd say maybe a third of the people I saw in the (very long) queue to go in did the same, so there were plenty available. I left the campsite just before 6 am. Thankfully I drove straight out without getting stuck as a...

Four days in and around RIAT 2023
Well, this year's RIAT was a pretty wild affair, with the weather making for some 'interesting' experiences! Nevertheless, I had a great time and I thought the organisers did a fantastic job in some rather testing circumstances at times. I had a ticket for the Friday and with the forecast rain I was...

Re: A week at RIAT23
What a fantastic set!
Great to see some really creative compositions that capture the atmosphere of the event, rather than simply more photos of aircraft.

Re: RIAT 2023 Discuss everything thread
Yep, I think you're likely right there Tom. I'm in the club too, having bought my show ticket at the super super early bird price before pnv went on sale, then the next time I looked Monday was sold out! I have a vague recollection of separate queues as you suggest at pnv east on Monday last year. (...

The Victory Show 2022
Another great show at Cosby. Good to see it on the calendar again after last year was supposed to be the last event. Hopefully it'll be back on again next year! I was there on the Saturday and as usual the big battle was an awesome spectacle, although the absolutely massive explosion that set fire t...

Re: LOTS more RAF Valley oldies - 2002-2003
Yep, I remember in particular watching those jags taxiing out from the dunes by the fire Hawk. Can't believe that was 20 years ago, and I was pretty happy with my 6x4 prints too!

Re: RAF Valley - 2002/2003
Hehe, the rickety rackety bridge, that takes me back! Not sure what it's like down that end these days, though I suspect that the perimeter gate won't be swinging in the breeze like it used to be!

Re: Four days in and around RIAT 2022
Thank for the comments everyone.
Totterdown can be awkward at times for photography and there are always some, erm, 'interesting' characters around, but when it's good, it's really good!

Four days in and around RIAT 2022
What a weekend it was! I was based at Totterdown for the weekend but went into the show on Friday and PnV on Monday. It was fantastic to see the arrivals after the flying display on Friday... https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52251370110_e427cafe3f_o.jpg Swedish SAAB Viggen by Peter Starling , on ...

Cosford Evening Shoot
Due to the time of year this was more of an evening shoot than normal, with a somewhat rushed nightshoot for half an hour at the end. However, we were very lucky with the evening light which was sublime before sunset. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52032105978_550fdc28fe_o.jpg Tornado GR4 ZD793...

Re: Wildlife on the Isle of Mull
Thanks chaps. Pat, the sprainting otter was near Croggan and the others were on the north shore of Loch Scridain. All were taken out of the car window.
