Team Zeus would be a brilliant addition. The display in 2022 was epic.
Yes it was and that pass he did that was too close to the crowd when doing his validation was awesome even though it shouldn't have happened.
Yep, just as he pulled up he was directly above my tent at Townsend Farm.

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.

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!

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread

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:...

Another 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?
They do it quite a lot at Valley as well, it’s not just a RIAT thing. I don’t know the reason though.

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 ...

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? LF A display team isn't just a pilot but also the crew that look after the aircraft. like the typhoon display team for examp...

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:

I live near Northampton under the Daventry RC and am trying to tie up a couple of pairs of fast jets seen Eastbound OTT which didn't track on ADSB.
