Re: RIAT 2018 ARRIVALS
Of course you are entitled to your own view, I'm just confused as to what your view is. You know what aircraft are attending and you know that aircraft variety is not that of 20 years ago and yet you still choose to spend the money and make the commitment of time. If you know all of this like the rest of us then why whinge and moan about it?Ridge Runner wrote: ↑Thu Jul 12, 2018 5:15 amYou are all entitled to your view, as am I. As turmo says, it is big commitment in time and money. I've attended since 1974 (missed the first) and I appreciate that it can only be a reflection of current operations. No offence meant to anyone. It is just not what it once was .... Maybe I'm just getting old!

True! I'll back away quietly!Of course you are entitled to your own view, I'm just confused as to what your view is. You know what aircraft are attending and you know that aircraft variety is not that of 20 years ago and yet you still choose to spend the money and make the commitment of time.

Re: RIAT 2018 ARRIVALS
I think people forget how much time and effort is put into arranging an airshow, in particular RIAT which is easily the biggest and best in the world! Yes, times have changed and there are less aircraft in the world nowadays that are being operated by countries with much tighter budgets but the airshow doesn't 'just happen'! I was a volunteer there for 18 years so I have a pretty good idea how much work is involved, and that's not forgetting the full timers who will start work on next years show as soon as this one is over.
If you don't like it, stay at home! Personally, it always gets a thumbs up from me!
Rant over!

Standard crazy landings for the Ukrainians. Flankers turned-in tight and the Candid did a wheelie down the runway.
