Re: B-1 arrival Discussion.

I think most people are aware of public footpaths and bridleways. "nothing wrong with that" - provided the b...

Re: B-1 arrival
There are rumours for tomorrow, but I'm sure we will know in advance due to the flight time.

2 flankers and an IL78 please. I've been looking at the photos from Greece and those Jordanian and UAE f-16s look insane. I'd like to see those at RiAT

Re: Kalitta Air 12th May 2023
Is it likely B-1s will arrive almost a month before the exercise? But it won't be that far ahead. This Kalitta flight will be the first of several support arrivals, so the bombers are likely to be at least a week or two later. :) No exactly true. Usually happens within a day or 2 of ground staff ar...

Re: Revell 1/48 Tornado F3 glueing issue
Revell don't always use the same plastics, it all depends when and where the kit was manufactured. If the plastic is proving to be intolerant to Tamiya extra thin, then it will require an adhesive with a longer exothermic process such as Revell contactia. I recommend Deluxe Precision Plastic glue.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2023 General Discussion Thread
Nothing is confirmed until RIAT confirm it, or technically until it touches down! For example the Heritage F-35 self confirmed for last year IIRC.. Also, all displays in Germany have used standard undecorated jets from what I've seen. There's been no German typhoon displays yet so how can you say t...
