From the same display week, the Indian Air Force Tejas fighter looked kind of tidy. :up:
Now officially qualifies as a 'regular' at Famous Dave's - El Centro

One or two of the Qatari Rafales that are training in France would look great on the static park. Not likely though admittedly.

I know not likely this year, but would love to see the Esquadrilha de fumaça return in the future. Missed them in 2008.

Its been 12 years since the Bone last flew at RIAT.

What i'd give to see it again. Remember 2007 like it was yesterday. Time sure does fly :sad:

A lesson for all those that take any airshow asset for granted....B1, comes every year- and then suddenly it didn’t.

Good chance of a few of those. A400, Grippen & Ospray are quite regular. Would love to see an F35 myself but the US display isn't coming. Hopefully a F35 from the RAF, even if not a full demo.

I mean this is very pedantic, but be consistent with the hyphens! All MDS designators are hyphenated. I see this all the time with 'enthusiasts' and I don't understand the reason.

They tend to come in uninvited. Just don't send your Typhoons to intercept. :lol:
