No RIAT 2020 so... RIAT 2019- one year on

Post by Manxman »

This weekend should have been RIAT, for me an annual pilgrimage since 2010 and right now should be queuing in traffic back in the direction of Cirencester...thinking about how few hours sleep I'll have before heading back to join the queue to get into the Departures enclosure. Off course it wasn't to be this year so instead this weekend I've been looking back through photos from RIAT 2019, which I hadn't posted here at the time.

I have to say 2019 had some real gems, Romanian Mig 21, Spanish AV8, Turkish F4s and French KC135 all firsts for me; but I don't think there has been such a disparity between the Saturday and Sunday flying before....which now seems even greater this week as Saturdays BOAC 747+Reds flypast has become so poignant.

Anyway here's some photos...
