RIAT Requests, whos going?

Steyr

Ok so who wants a picture of what when myself and Vulcan and combat go over? He will be doing fast movers/Airborne pics and il do statics.

Also who from here is going over and does anybody fancy meeting for a few with myself and Vulcan and Combat?

I'm not going to the RIAT anymore, just Farnborough. I've been over in the UK already this summer and it's just too expensive. When I was over I bought a ****e disposable camera (couldn't borrow a digital at the time) for £4.50 and none of the photos showed up on the film. I'm going over for the Enthusiast Day/Trade Day. It's an expensive day out.

In order of preference, I'd love to see photos of;
F-22A Raptor
Irish Air Corps CASA CN-235M
Eurofighter Typhoon
Cirrus SR22
Hungarian/Czech Air Force Antonov An-26
Indian Air Force Sarang Helicopter Display Team
C-17A Globemaster
VLM Airlines Fokker 50
Anything Russian!


Enjoy yourselves

Just got back from holidays there,didnt think i'd have enough money left over to get over to Fairford but I do,but i couldnt imagine we'd find anywhere to stay at this late stage:(

A few shots of The F-22 would be nice Steyr and enjoy!

No problem, FYI the Raptor is going to be flown at RIAT by an RAF pilot too.

Just read there that Saturday's show has been cancelled due to the heavy rainfall over the last 72 hours,what a disaster for anyone who travelled over!I just hope they manage to get the airfield in order for Sunday now.I presume the A380 wont be on show as it was due to fly on Saturday only.To steyr and anyone else that travelled I hope it hasn't dampened spirits too much and that sunday will be a great show!

Anyone who is going should know that you have to have a ticket in advance for sunday you can't get them there. Also saturday tickets are not valid.

Guys,

Who actually travelled over , what a gutting thing , the rain must have been bad !

Steyr

Hey all i went over with Roger ( Vulcan57 ) and his Son Adrian ( Combat5 ) weather was brilliant but basewise it was really bad ( muddy fields etc ) thats why RIAT was called off, either way we had a blast we visited LHR at the now Infamous spotting location of Myrtle Avenue where Jumbo's are literally 30ft above your head, we also visited the Helicopter Museum in Weston-Super-Mare and oh yes PICTURES WILL FOLLOW VERY SOON!:D

Mytle Ave , know it well.

I always like The Green Man , had added advantages of a pint or two.

If you were down at WSM , you were not far from the Fleet Air Arm museum at Yeovilton , didn't fancy popping in there , or no time ?

I am currently right under a flight path into AMS watching allsorts. ( between working of course )

We were down at WSM and had though about Yeovilton. Problem was that we were relying on public transport and to get to yeovilton would have been a lot more difficult.
