Re: ZZ175 RRR820 to Honington.

C-17 RRR840 is set to do circuits today at Mildenhall/Honington. 13:30 to 16:30 same as yesterday which turned out to be much shorter in reality.

Looking at Demobbed http://www.demobbed.org.uk/locations.php?location=1641, the Tornados at Honington are: ZA553, ZA587, ZA613, ZD744 and ZG752. ZD711 was also there at some point but apparently hasn't been sighted since April 2018.
ZD744 isn't at Honington.

I bought tickets for the Sunday which at present is looking a bit sparse. Most of the interesting stuff is just Friday and Saturday.

RIAT Friday and Sunday 2018

Went to RIAT on the Friday specifically to see the RAF100 flypast which due to the only rain we've had in weeks was cancelled so we went back on Sunday to catch what might be the last Tornado at RIAT. I took 6,000 images over the two days (I won't bore you with them all). https://farm1.staticflickr....
