RIAT website
Time to think of the stars of the show, the aircraft themselves, and excitement is building towards tomorrow and the first aircraft arrivals. Pick of Wednesday's bunch are the Jordanian Hercules at 10am (a frequent visitor, and the Jordanians always come up with a spectacular paint job on their aircraft), the Saudi Herc at 11.30am, the Jordanian Falcons (due in around 12 noon, in formation), the Saudi Hawks at approx 1pm, and the Turkish F-16 around 1.45pm.

Not sure what the ATIS is reporting, but the Brize METAR (timed at 0700L) is 010 at 8kts, so looks like it could be runway 09 today.

Sorry, it's been operating out of Canon recently, and Airliners.net said MC-12W. 1+1 = 49, sorry!
