You, ll get bored after once

...but that is your opinion, not a fact, and is down to the poster as to whether they will agree or not.

The Northrop Grumman Corporation Firebird will be at RIAT.

Big civilian update today....Gloster Meteor T.7 the stand out one for me and if the AT-6B Wolverine that is the picture on the confirmed aircraft list turns up that would be cool, The rest I'm not to fussed about but I am sure they will please a few who just like aircraft but not for my liking.

Still a while to go but still got the Italian's, French, Romanian and Finnish to be added that have self confirmed and surely the Yanks will send something as they usually do......Still hoping for the Polish Mig-29, SU-22 Fitters and maybe their F-16 too seeing as there is only 1 in the display so far.

This RIAT looks epic!! look at all the flying displays! Epic military stuff flying!! so happy i booked my tickets early!!!

Great boost to the static line. AT-6B Wolverine, Gloster Meteor T.7 & the M-346 ae the highlights for me.

Sensing a little cynicism here?

Any word about 'Solo-Turk'?

Need something to test my car alarm.......

Solo Turk not doing any displays outside of Turkey this year it seems, don't know reason why but going to be sorley missed at RIAT this year as it's a great display.

What a pity, I remember his practice in 2017(??) when he got so close to supersonic!

Not sure if the RAF Tucano is mentioned here that will do a flying display. If so i looked over it and you can delete this post.

It was mentioned a few weeks ago on here and confirmed by DBH the other week.

On the Solo Turk calendar there are no overseas events shown, but all of July is blank at the moment, no dates what so ever.

I am sure I remember reading either on here or ukar the reason Solo Turk not displaying outside of Turkey? I could be wrong though it's been a long week

There is nothing coming from Turkey this year.

How have we come to that conclusion?

The solo Turks schedule is made up of all Turkish airshows so I'd assume that it is staying in Turkey, perhaps its not doing any displays in july? It will be very sad if it doesn't go to RIAT. just read back through the thread and it seems that a lot of people have said it wont be going.

Or, like always we can just wait until Turkey officially decline RIATs invite...Just a thought.

I'll be happy with any F-16 display. Turkish or not.
