Re: RIAT 2023 wish list
I think it got repainted in grey when it entered service. Apart from the one they've left white to ferry Truss around in.capercaillie wrote: ↑Thu 21 Jul 2022, 12:38 pmHave they repainted it? Was always white with lots of flashing lights when I used to watch? And it didn't have a tail?????

Re: RIAT 2023 wish list
So you are giving us an IAT with no British debut type at all, boring!
And how long is that Harrier/F-35 flypast going to take? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm assuming "Highlights Friday" would include the arrival of the Norwegian Starfighter?

Re: RIAT 2023 wish list
Hate to burst your bubble but the Angels are performing at Duluth on the 15th & 16th.
It’s a shame, as they’d be a star performer at any UK show! Wonder why they’re so evasive? Costs? And logistics? Last European appearance was 2006! Long long overdue (well same could be said for a B-1 taking off).
Suppose i’ll have to venture over to see them in their habitat!

Re: RIAT 2023 wish list
Looking forward to the red arrows next year. Back to 9 and the first time I've seen them since 2019.
They are also the reason why I love aviation
