Dutch NH90 added to static

As of now (19:20), just an ASK-21 glider display announced. And with that awe inspiring update...

Unless the Falcons/A400M have cancelled since the teaser earlier, their PR team are terrible.

Tutor display and Voyager Flypast also added this evening.

Not sure what the parachuting individual/kite was about then.

Credit where its due for the Voyager flypast though. Doubt anywhere else is going to grab that this year.

[jasonT1981]

Kite was the glider.

[seven]

Kites and parachutist don't equal glider though. Terrible clue! Especially as they know we know about the A400M/Falcons, which it is likely they are holding back the announcement of

5 Take Flight Friday updates to go, Black Cats and RAF Falcons (+ most likely A400M) are self confirmed. The admin on Facebook has hinted that something from the cancelled Danish Airshow could make an appearance.

Cosford seemingly suggesting they have managed to get the Rafele demo with the Danish show cancelled.

Danish Airshow has been cancelled, that also means the Rafale is free. Rafale is in Duxford just before also. Any chance your team could pull a miracle?

If the Rafale appears, does this mean that it will replace the scheduled French Mirage? Can't imagine that both will be on the programme although I would love them to be!

Looks like the rafale is indeed going to be added this afternoon! What a coupe with the mirage’s too

The hints on social media would suggest that they have indeed secured both the Mirages and the Rafale for the show, let's see what 7 pm brings.

Huh? Why would that make any difference?!

French Army Extra 330 so far.

Hint of an 'incoming announcement 2000', so might still get that tennis player bloke...

Rafale was announced at 8pm

[jasonT1981]

Cosford has gone from a rather run of the mill nothing exciting show this year to a great line up in the space of a few weeks.

I'm excited for Couteau Delta, first ever RAF F35 Demo, A330 flypast, Rafale, Couteau Delta & Equipe de Voltige. Really glad I bought tickets with the CD announcement. Also possible that the Falcon's jump from an A400

Before this it was seeming like a same old-same old show. The only thing that appealed to me (but not enough to buy tickets) was the Gazelle Squadron 4 ship.

Just announced at RAF A400 will be on static display

[jasonT1981]

Lovely update for static, show really is seemingly going to be a good one.

Still far from great IMO, take away the hefty French support and they've got squat. But positives to be had, A400M being one of them.
I notice the Falcons are still not officially confirmed..
