RIAT Arrivals... LIVE! 2013

Post by boff180 »

Hello UKAR Members,

Those that were members on here last year will know exactly what this thread is about.

Over the next three arrivals days we hope to post photos of the latest arrivals at RIAT as they touch the Tarmac or soon after directly into this thread.

Last year this thread managed to crash the entire site... What will happen this year?

Tune in tomorrow to find out!

Andy

Morning, its going like a snail as lots of people in the enclosure are on the web. I was the 8th car in the main car park and already there is no space on the front in P&V east!

Here we go with the first arrival, one U2 has gone, one has gone tech.
