Hercs over Cornwall
2 x C-130 seen over Mevagissey, Cornwall so far this morning, wheels down heading for Newquay/St Mawgan. Any ideas?

Re: Dragon 31 inbound Fairford.
How many are there now then, I take it the one that went Tech is still on the ground? What are my chances of seeing these on Sunday as I make my way down the M4 on holiday?

Re: Worst RIAT ever?
Thats a tad personal Eizo, no real need for that. However as you were not impressed I guess we wont have to put up with your rants and complaints on this forum next time. Thanks for coming though, your contribution to the RAFBF is much appreciated!!

Re: U2's into Fairford

Re: Worst RIAT ever?
It never amazes me that within days of a show how many ungrateful sods starting complaining on here! Was it the best RIAT ever, well NO, was it the worst, NO again, that was last year!

Re: U2's into Fairford
They really could have sent them a week earlier!!
What are the chances of these being parked up outside on Sunday when I go on holiday to Cornwall down the M4?

Back in the glorious 80s it was possible to just climb the fire escape stairs and sit on top of the building with your feet ha...
