RAF Cosford Airshow 2018, Sunday 10th June

Though it could just be a flypast

Doesn't matter, how many times have the RAF had a flying Tornado at shows in the last 8 years or so?

I didn't think I would ever see a RAF one fly ever again, so flypast or not... I'm excited.

Couple of years ago at RIAT when they were celebrating the TTTE. There was a flypast of RAF German and Italian Tornados. I hope you get more at Cosford and that it will also do RIAT this year.

Lots of aircraft to announce tomorrow...keep an eye out at about 1100!

What could they be..

A flying international item is included in the bunch!

Here's the clue as to it's country...

[MRTT]

Going for something French, in the flying programme. Hoping for either the Rafale or Couteau Delta.

[jasonT1981]

The symbols they posted suggest France. However the boards won't allow them.

Rafale flying

However the boards won't allow them.

That sentence aged well....

Maybe it will join the formation again at the end. I can't see that they wouldn't do the Trenchard at the RAF's own major display if they are able.

Yeah, the BBMF have just said it will happen at Cosford. Those must just be display slot times.

More than likely

Actually I'm looking forward to having a cheeky one or two during the show. Not driving down so that's a help on that score. We've booked a weekend break with National Travel including coach to and from, dinner, bed and breakfast on Saturday night and entry to the show all included. All sounds nicely civilised..........

Very nice Steve,

I'll be coming down by taxi (not on the meter though ) and tormenting my ususal driver with copious amounts of the amber nectar as usual!!

Another international flying announcement tomorrow, clue will be posted later today.
