As the theme is 70 Years of NATO would love to see a simulated QRA with the pilots running to their jets with Hunter, F-104, F-16AM, MiG-21, Typhoon and F-22A in a stream takeoff - then linking up to intercept and flypast with B-52, B-1 and Tu-22M or similar.

It will also be Fly Navy's 110th anniversary so hopefully we get something from that as well :)

I would like to second fox4g anything that's not grey, also a full pair Army Air Corp Apache display. Perhaps a Mil Mi-24 as well.

Got bad news for you...Most of the participants will be grey, seeing as it is the primary colour for a lot of forces, and has been the same at many RIAT's in the past... :S :lol: :lol:

I hope the Eastern European NATO members will bring cool stuff for us to look at: Polish MiG-29s, Romanian MiG-21s, Czech and Hungarian Hinds... I really like these, and they sometimes have interesting liveries to display.
With Serbia trying to increase cooperation with the West (and with Russia at the same time... As we say in France, they want both the butter and the money for the butter... and, possibly, a night with the farm maid as well!), I have a dream of seeing a G4 Super Galeb or J-22 Orao, but I don't see it happening.

The ICAS Convention is in a couple of weeks. Possible early confirmation if one of the USAF display teams are coming over. (A10 & F35 please)

Not seen the F35 display yet. I Saw 3 of them flying together in London during the summer for RAF 100, but that was flypast only.

The planes I'd most like to see are:

1. Foxbat.
2. Blackjack.
3. Backfire.

I think we are more likely to see a pig fly over though.

When they first came out, at Heathrow we used to call Boeing 737s "pigs".

I would say there is a fair chance of one (or more) of them flying over.
