Hello All I'm trying to find the date of an airshow I visited with my late grand father sometime in the 90's. I'm trying to remember the year we to date some photos. All I can remember from the event that year was that the De Havilland Mosquito was a no show. If I remember right it was vandalised by...

You'll probably get BAe 146s and the A400m visiting Exeter or Newquay. You may also get few helis from yeovilton but it's a bit far down Newton Abbott.

RIAT airshow was fantastic. However had a rather disappointing stay this weekend at the "official" RIAT campsite. I'm surprised they're even allowed to be called that as the stay was horrendous. We were led to believe this was a family campsite, even from the RIAT website. However when we arrived we...

Afraid I can't share your same experience now having arrived. This morning there was no water apart from the drinking taps. Bins were overflowing. Toilets were covered in toilet roll and no where to wash your hands. No where to wash pots or pans. Music playing till 1230 at night (and that's the camp...

So with the Tory government on the verge of collapse and a possible looming Genereal Election with Corbyn about to take the reigns of PM. How long before he cancels the F35 order, sells HMS Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales, and scraps our trident submarines etc.

Hello All

Booked all three days with camping for this years RIAT and was just wondering if anyone has stayed in the Tangerine Fields. Could anyone give up a heads up of what its like, is it cramped, are the toilets/showers clean etc.

Thank in advance.

I thoroughly Enjoyed it, would agree with the fencing off the of the Static,

Did anyone else hear the Danish Pilot get a telling off for going to close to the Display line. (made some great photos tho)

Hello all, was wondering if someone could help me. This is a bit of wild shot but in the lates 90's I remember playing cricket for my school in Taunton and a formation of 4 aircraft went over head very low quite a few times. I know one of them was a E-3 Sentry and two were VC-10's. I can't quite rem...

Anyone know anything?

Are resurfacing works about to start at Ilton?

Is the F-35 really as bad as some people are saying it is?

I've heard it can only pull a max of 6.5g in a turn unloaded.

why is FR24 and Planefinder frowned on so much, its just another tool like PP, so what is all the fuss about?

In a split second, Lieutenant Commander Gotke decided to fly the aircraft to safety rather than eject and abandon the machine to its fate.

Top reporting again.....

you beat me to it....

Yep flew overhead Chippenham Sorry to be picky but correct registration is ZM400. Been a busy day down south today! That's what I said (eventually) :ninja: Yep clear skies make everything soooooo much easier. Yep they sure do! Missed those KC-135s by a couple of miles. I was looking out for those K...

The Navy do like to be a little different tho, maybe they could compromise and have a ramp take off with cat recovery, you could even fit a cat along the recovering runway likes cats 3&4 on the USS ships

According to the times paper (Thursday 19 Feb) the USSR has spent 32 million on defence over the last year. :unsure: So half a Typhoon then? Not a lot to get worried about !! Rest Easy Folks! That 32 million the 'USSR' ( Un-United?) has spent on defence over the last year was Russian Roubles ;) , s...

I saw Two F15s fly over to the north of Taunton ( I heard them first :-) ) , they were on PP as Jungle 21 flight level 3500ft. I have seen them down this way quite a bit, normally high up and sometimes with a tanker in support. Jungle is a Lakenheath Callsign and quite a generic one by the looks of ...

The problem I would have with that is, it's not a proper spitfire, thats a two seat trainer for a spitfire,

I did wonder if the sentries refuelled from usaf tankers. Wonder if they will adopt a similar thing with the F35s

Which RAF planes practice regulary AA refueling? Do the Sentry AEW.1 used by the RAF practice this with the Boom or Drogue if they do?
