Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
nothing is confirmed at a show until its u/c hits the tarmac or it is running in for its display.....
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
A-10 and F-35 will be one of the highlights for me unless we are very lucky to see B-1 fly past that would be the icing on the cake. Cannot wait for July now. Well done RIAT line up looking very good already and it is only March.:>)
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Afghanistan!
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Think there might be a slight typo in the latest update...!
'Afghanistan Air Force'
'Afghanistan Air Force'
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Got a bit excited. How can they confuse Afghanistan with what I assume is supposed to be Slovenia!
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Although the L410 and PC9 are also down as Slovakian Air Force as well...
Someone in DBH is sweating to correct this!
(P.S. If you're in DBH sweating, don't... its a wicked update! )

Spanish F18 hornet flying, unfortunately Spanish Navy is now red meaning no harriers
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Solid update (wading through the webpage issues!)
Very excited to see the Spanish EF-18 again.

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Swedish Air Force also added to the discussion list today, no prizes for guessing what they might bring over, although an SK60 would be nice along with the Gripen.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Yes but it could be a Gripen E...
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Just an absolutely great update really whichever way you look at it.
It wouldn't be RIAT without the Jordanian Herc.
Let 410s are great little rarities.
The PC9 display is fantastic.
The Spanish F-18 is a great display and always good to get multiple Hornets.
The BAF F-16 is a great display often taken for granted, and its always good to see Vipers on static.
I just can't wait.

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Absolutely agree with the BAF F-16. I always enjoyed the Royal Netherlands F-16 and that was a very common item a few years ago. Still very much miss it now. Had some fantastic paint schemes notably the Zebra and Orange ones!MiG_Eater wrote: ↑Thu 17 Mar 2022, 12:30 pmJust an absolutely great update really whichever way you look at it.

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Once the European nation trade in for the F-35s is completed and none of them can mount a display because they’ve procured too few/not enough hours budgeted, we’ll miss the F-16 displays.
Make the most of Hornets and F-16s whilst you can!

Good point, I remember being a small kid and moaning to my dad as we walked along a huge static line up "not another Phantom"

I hope we get the F35 US single demo - superbly displayed for a 'new' fighter.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Couldn’t agree more!
Spanish EF-18 was superb last time, I seem to recall one of the tightest displays I’ve ever seen in some fairly crappy conditions.

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread

Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
I guess that depends on whether Dan comes over, as he generally likes to fly one of his Spitfires or one of his P-51s in the HFrockfordstone wrote: ↑Fri 18 Mar 2022, 10:24 amwould love to see the A-10.... maybe they could get the P-47 up with it for a flypast.... that would be nice

I would love to see them bring their F86 Sabre over as part of the HF.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Unlikely, as they’d only be allowed to trundle up and down in it as swept-wing jet aerobatics are still prohibited by the CAA.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
As has already been mentioned, plenty of great displays have happened post Shoreham, it's really not the big issue it's being made out to be.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
Is there not a Sabre flying in Europe now? That would be nice for a solo display or static at least.jasonT1981 wrote: ↑Fri 18 Mar 2022, 3:03 pmI would love to see them bring their F86 Sabre over as part of the HF.
Re: RIAT 2022 Discussion Thread
