Cosford 2016 Wishlist?

Post by G-AMPY »

After the success of this years show (and the disapointment of the cancellations), what do people want to see appear at the RAF'S only airshow next year? :cool:

For me I would like to see;
- Tornado Gr4 solo display
- Navy black cats
- Ramex Delta
- Sally b
- Something USAF
- And more museum aircraft out on static!

What about everyone else? :cuppa:

Brazilian Smoke Squadron please Pete, I'm sure the runway is long enough for Super Tucano's. :biggrin:

This pretty much sums it up for me, especially the Alize... I've been wanting it to come to the UK since it got back up in the air! Add an Osprey and I'll be happy...

Oh dear! :lol: :hide:

Thanks for the sensible suggestions, some of them we're already investigating for next year and some we may look into now after your suggestions! :up:

Have to get some more magic dust out to secure the B-36 and XB-70... might go for the Russian Knights while I'm at it!

More news about the show will be announced next month... :ninja:

Hmm what would I like to see next year at Cosford.
Well to start with
From France
Ramex Delta or the PdF
From Poland
Mig 29.
From Belgium
F16 display with pyro's :smile:
and one or two other foreign fast jet displays.
The B25 and B17 maybe in a nice flypast together, it would be nice to add in the Lancaster as a WW2 bomber flypast.
The Sea Vixen if funds allow.
The Huey in a flying display.
I know one always seems to appear at Duxford but a nice display by a Junkers JU52 would fit perfectly at Cosford.

Something nice outside from the museum, lets say the Mosquito. :biggrin:
It would be nice if a few of the display pilots could go to the Cosford Club form a little meet and greet.
Finally some good weather.

Oh and if the rumours turn out to be true about August 1st being in June next year.

If you don't get the Millennium Falcon, flanked by two X-Wings in formation, the show is going to be a disaster Preoch. Make they have the correct colour schemes too, otherwise a few people on UKAR will end up topping themselves.

Eh... It's been done before. Unless it's a star-lit topside pass, X-wings leave me cold these days. Not like the days when Porkins used to fly 'em... :joystick: :joystick:

Bring back the ol' Y-Wing role demo, I say... :win:

Time machine, back to the future day yesterday, where's the Delorean? :) tbh what ever comes is fine, the lack of RAF assets in 2016 will change shows anyway. Go get what ever you can, maybe a flypast from one of the Antonovs that go into Birmingham would be nice
