Cosford 2015

[Dan M]

I'm wondering how the organisers have suddenly managed to attract a number of big players, after years of a single RAF fast jet being the showpiece?

Not complaining though!!!

I do think mainly as its the only official RAF Show in 2015 in UK

The Swedes are not coming, this has been discussed over on UKar. However a Marinefleiger Sea King has been added to static display.

What options are there for campsites around Cosford ? Have local farmers opened up in previous years ?

Oh well, can't have it all I suppose

Indeed, its already looking rediculously good! For todays standards anyway.

It's looking like a great line up this year

I've just been reading the article in the link here viewtopic.php?f=287&t=113411 and it mentions that the Synchro Pair of the Typhoon and the Spitfire will hopefully be using the BoB Commemoratively marked Typhoon which then is listed as performing at Cosford this year

I guess my question is - does this mean that we will see the Solo Typhoon Display and the Synchro Pair, and if this is the case, will it mean we get to see the Commemorative Jet (ZK 349) and the "Special Tail" Jet (ZK 343)

Its looking fantastic this year, Italian HH-139 just added too

[GVLCN]

RIAT really need to pull their finger out, cosford is looking like the best airshow it's had in years & at a fraction of the price of RIAT!

[seven]

And a fraction of the participants too.. Yes Cosford is looking good, but unless RIAT manage to snag something from Asia or Africa, or maybe Russia(LOL) then its not going to see improvement on the same level. Don't forget Cosford has not booked anything that hasn't been seen in the UK before.

Was that just a malicious rumour re 6 SU 30s coming from India for RIAT ?

[seven]

The rumour was that there was a detachment to Waddinton IIRC, but it turned out to be Italians that were due i think?? I stopped paying attention with that one, with the way it was going.

[beefsteak]

The way I heard it, it was to Coningsby , but I thought it was a bit far fetched, 2 maybe, 1 possibly,........... but 6 !!!!!

[seven]

Didn't pay attention to the exact location as i have no way of getting there! But yea, 6 would make sense for a deployment. But for an airshow, i think somebody has let their wonkbonk loose.

Oh and reported elsewhere that the Apache role demo is attending, however the organisers have said previously they are not. Read into that..

[luke28]

The organisers have said theres been developments on the Apache duo and too expect an announcement tomorrow.

[luke28]

Apache role demo now confirmed and also one on static
