Having a rough count up that makes about 215 planes (both static and display) with still 2 more updates to go. Let's hope there are still some good additions from the USAF too.

Brilliant post Robin,great work
I always believe in quality is better than quantity,and we are certainly blessed with quality this year.Great work from the RIAT team

Minor changes of layout added today.

Hopefully in the next 24 hour maybe able to add some new participants aircraft to the Fairford Air show.....

Hi Robin,

Wonderfull piece of work!!! Like it a lot, it give a good overview of all aviailible info. Just one question: you said "in the next 24 hours", does this mean that you are expecting an update before thursday?

Good job as always Robin

Russian companies are committed to Farnborough, unless something very drastic happens they will be there. DSEI is a good example of a trade show where the exhibitors commit despite what is happening in the world. Knights are also committed to be there but as they are state military then they could well be pulled as any stage...

One thing to remember for air-air / display freqs for some participants, F-5's, MB-339's and the confirmed F-16's each have one VHF and one UHF radio. So if working military ATC on UHF inbound they will be chatting on VHF then vice versa once with Brize then Fairford on VHF ATC.

Sorry but unlikely due to lack of time, the freqs used by F16s have been well documented in the past, likewise the Swiss and Saudi freqs. For the 'new' teams then searching will be required for the freqs, all part of the fun

Great info..

Any chance HunterF6, you could supply a list of possible Air to Air... to add to the page one listing.

Dutch could be any of the following

312 & 313 Sqn

138.525 Volkel
138.700 Volkel
139.075 Volkel
140.100 Volkel
140.675 Volkel
142.075 Volkel
142.125 Volkel
142.275 Volkel
142.425 Volkel
142.475 Volkel
142.975 Volkel
143.275 Volkel

322 & 323 Sqn

129.275 323 Sqn Leeuwarden
138.500 Leeuwarden
139.175 323 Sqn Leeuwarden

140.525 322 Sqn Leeuwarden
140.575 322 Sqn Leeuwarden
140.625 323 Sqn Leeuwarden
140.975 323 Sqn Leeuwarden
141.225 322 Sqn Leeuwarden
141.450 322 Sqn Leeuwarden
141.850 Leeuwarden
142.025 323 Sqn Leeuwarden

List can be found here

I believe Volkel supply the the Dutch display team this year. So probably search them would be easier


The Belgian display team used 143.375 when transiting the UK last year on a couple of occasions and used the call sign BAF 495

would suggest losing the (P) and (S) for Pat Suisse, as mentioned theyll use whichever band isnt in use for ATC. Breitlings used <136.950> last year. Jordanians and BBMF will use Twr freq. Also would suggest losing the 'Fairford Approach' freqs which are correctly listed as Brize.

141.850 was Netherlands F16 demo 'airboss' last year, using UHF tower for ATC

Thanx Robin!! One question i hope you can answer is: why did you put Spain and Ireland in the list of participaiting counties, something you know?

Greetings,

Antal

Global Hawk and Mantis are both Full Scale Models (FSM's, at least that's what I think it stands for!)

I think Nationwide B/S around the local area were selling them last year if that any help?

Australia,spain,Morocco Have declined why are they still listed as under discussion?
