Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
Looking at google translate it would appear that 'Klar' means clear,'Utgar' means void & 'Ej Klar' means not ready.
I would think that the red shading accompanying the word 'Utgar' means a no show at these events - hope I'm wrong

2 x Mirage F1 superb!
Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
I'm not sure they've been formally invited, I think it's the SwAFHF themselves that are wishing to come, but struggling for aircraft availability/permission from SwAF/acceptance from airshows/etc.!bclark86 wrote:No mention of the Swedish Historic flight (rumours). I thought maybe they would mention it in the invited countries update.
Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
Waddo have sent me a confirmation for the Sweeds ! So fingers crossed for RIAT too.

Which, I believe, stated that the Flight would be seen at two shows in the UK, RIAT not being one of them...Waddo have sent me a confirmation for the Sweeds ! So fingers crossed for RIAT too.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
Madness in what respect? RIAT is the biggest show in terms of visitors, maybe, but i the invitation has come from the MOD (which seems likely, considering to RAF shows and an FAA show were the original plan) then why would RIAT even be mentioned?andrew b wrote:That would be madness not coming to the biggest show in the UK surley
RIAT, thankfully, is not the be-all and end-all of UK aviation events.

Now no disrespect intended here fellah, but unless you work for U.S. intelligence (now there's an oxymoron if ever there was one) and therefore you can read my emails, I'm pretty sure you don't know what Waddo put in their message to me !!Northolt Nobbler wrote:Which, I believe, stated that the Flight would be seen at two shows in the UK, RIAT not being one of them...Waddo have sent me a confirmation for the Sweeds !

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2013
The line has now been removed from the Waddington press release, but it quite clearly read
It would appear things have - as they often do - changed. Jersey is now confirmed, I believe, so for those that only go to RIAT, you may be in luck...RAF Leuchars will also play host to the Viggen and SK60 in September, giving just two opportunities this year in the UK

Update has started

Airbus A320CJ 4 Sqn Transport (Static)
Well wasn't that short and sweet
Nice to see a airshow debut though. Hopefully more will be added after the media launch next Tuesday
Latest Update - 13/06/13
Despite their best efforts, the Royal Australian Air Force will not be taking part in this summer's Air Tattoo. We were informed this week that every effort was made to try and make an airframe available and that they had left a decision to the last possible moment in the hope that an opportunity would arise. Their email stated:"Rest assured we did all we could to try to make an airframe available, unfortunately for a variety of reasons it has not proven possible. RIAT remains an event we will endeavour to support in the future if competing pressures allow."
The Air Tattoo is very grateful to the RAAF for doing all it could to support RIAT 2013, and like them, we look forward to welcoming an RAAF aircraft in the near future.
Very shortly, we hope to be able to confirm a Gloster Meteor T7, from Air Atlantique, for the flying display.
