    RIAT 2015

    It's looking like being an awesome show this year.

    http://www.raf.mod.uk/news/archive/u...ength-05062015

    I wasn't going to bother this year having done last year's show with Stuka but between the USA showing up for the first time in years, and the Vulcan's last ever show its not one to miss out on.

    Can't go this year but I plan on it next year. Plan on taking a week and heading over.

    Was sad when I saw the Vulcan won't be flying much longer, that was always one of my favorite displays at Mildenhall during Air Fete back in the early 90s.

    I don't think I'll be able to do the same as last year and stay in a hotel for the weekend etc. had/have the best mates stag do, wedding, and evening reception this month so the fun money is pretty much gone until August really.

    However I get cheap RIAT tickets via work so it'd be rude not to take advantage given how the show is looking. This year's Typhoon/Spitfire synchro display is pretty special to watch as well.

    Hopefully we can do a proper meet up weekend for next year.

    My buddy and me just recently decided not to go this, but next year.
    Couple of weeks ago the list wasn´t too impressive ...
