According to a post on the Brize Facebook page, two Dutch Alouette III's will be at Brize during RIAT weekend on a farewell tour. Someone has reached out to RIAT asking if they would like a fly through. Fingers crossed they can be fitted in to the lineup

From here http://www.airtattoo.com/news/2015/jul/ ... air-tattooVISIT THE RAF VILLAGE AT THE AIR TATTOO
Published: 09 Jul 2015
The Air Tattoo has had fantastic support from the Royal Air Force this year in both the flying and static display with the RAF Village adding another exciting dimension to their participation.
The theme of the RAF Village is 'Securing the Skies' which is the principal duty of the Royal Air Force, both in the UK and overseas. The RAF Village provides an opportunity to meet the varied personnel who deliver and support the operations, and see the equipment they use.
You will be able to walk through and view the load bay of the new A400M, sit in the cockpit of a red arrow, taste the foods cooked by RAF award winning chefs, test out your head for heights with the RAF Regiment climbing wall or view some of the innovative equipment used across the RAF in peacetime and wartime operations.
Please see HERE for the map of the RAF Village which is open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, pop by and find out more.
Tickets for Friday are still available and can be purchased HERE. Saturday and Sunday are sold out. Please do not attend without a ticket as you cannot purchase at the gate.
No doubt someone will kick off after if they can't get a good photo of the A400

Makes sense that they have might have taken the 'global' option.
Aviation, breath it in your lungs will stain.
Re: RIAT 2015 Discussion Thread
Re P-1
Would have been nice to have seen one of them slotted into the Friday flying for those like me who left it too late for tickets on the other days.
Especially for such a rare aircraft to be sitting on the deck with a only short display listed for Friday.
Still,always Farnborough next year when they might come over again especially as they can now be sold outside Japan and the UK and other air arms might show interest.
