Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread
Anyone know what support aircraft came in with the Hellenic F-4? There was a large amount of crew around it for a two-seat aircraft.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread
The email I received regarding the B52 announcement states that it is the first USAF display suggesting that there will be others and on other forums people have asked the display pilot and she stated that RIAT was on their list as long as everything aligns. Given the tanker theme it could also jus...

Hopefully! Just looking through previous years and it’s seems it was 2017 when the Hellenic Phantoms were last here.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread
The Hellenic Air Force update will likely be Zeus Demo Team as they have self confirmed (as mentioned further up this thread).
Here’s hoping for some Phantoms though!

He overshot on the crowd display line on his practice on the Friday as I heard air traffic control telling him 1st pass was too close, Was awesome though :) Yeah that’s the moment I meant, I was setting our tent up at Townsend Farm and it felt like he was directly over us when he pulled up :thumbs:...

Re: RIAT Global Hawk Query
They do it quite a lot at Valley as well, it’s not just a RIAT thing. I don’t know the reason though.Red-Eye-Knight wrote: ↑Thu Jul 21, 2022 10:28 pmAnother Hawk question for people if they know?
Is there a reason why the Hawk T.2 always seems to have its canopy open when taxiing in at RIAT?

Re: Best display of RIAT 2022
Oh I was greatful don't get me wrong I have no complaints about RIAT i just felt it was very short and they usually do a bit more hovering up and down the runway like the Chinook does. I'd say the RAF Chinook display is the best solo helicopter out there. That we're likely to see anyway :lol: Oh i ...

Re: Best display of RIAT 2022
You mean a solo display, tell me how do you distinguish these days between the Red Arrows, a display team, and the Typhoon solo display when it is also called a display team?

Re: Departure day
It would appear they were the Greek F-16’s. Checked my images and the Finnish Hawks left before the Gripens.
Checked the Threshold list and that correlates also:
