Re: Brize Norton flypasts
My question therefore is whether there's a specific reason we never see anything from Brize perform a flypast at RIAT. Or have we in the past? Another consideration is every RAF task is timed.

Re: USAF Boeing KC 46 Pegasus tankers
Can't imagine they'll be at Mildenhall before it's closed.

Re: UKAR in 2017: What For The Future?
You are bang, what a great and insightful post. IMHO the rhetoric, which seems to be some sort of counter productive attempt to revive interest has been turning some people off since about last May. However, it needs calling out and challenging rather than giving in or walking away. We do appear be...

Given he believes, naively or perhaps unbriefed, that am upgraded Super Hornet can do the same role. Nobody appears to be in agreement with this. As for a successful businessman, maybe.

Talk about stating the bleeding obvious. That said, we probably need to dumb things down to that level so President Trump can understand.

I would agree, it's a problem but certainly not exclusive to UKAR. Changing times where social media is easier and more accessible than forums quite simply. UKAR's social media contribution is good, but perhaps it needs to be intensified to go with the trend and perhaps reignite things. No easily th...
