Hi everyone

With the Belgium Air Force and the Norwegian Air Force... now following Lakenheaths example and painting up one each of thier F16's in a DDay Anniversary colour scheme.

I would very much like to see all these at RIAT in a very Special DDay Tribute Line Up... along with any of the other Air Forces that took part in DDay that have all so marked the event with a special colour scheme on their aircraft.

I would love to see those new DDay coloured aircraft as well.
Hopefully the A-10 81-0994 will come, which is the first aircraft I have ever photographed in my spotting career :Wow:

Besides those, I would also love to see a MiG-15, like OK-UTI or any other flying one, but I don't think they visit airshows that often...

It really would be good to see a Wittmund based A4 Skyhawk.
They have previously said they would appear but cancelled at the last moment.....
That’s because as the aircraft was taxiing out it went tech. And the other 6 were out in the Canary Islands, with one of them 6 also broken at the time.

Shame really, would have been nice to see. Hopefully if operational commitments allow one of them will turn up at RIAT at last minute.

Cheers,

Tom

I saw the F15 demo at Woodford in the early 90’s I think it was. It knocked off its display early due to torrential rain. The RAF Jaguar display then took off and did it’s display in the torrential rain, no problem!! One up for the RAF that day :thumb:

I bought tickets for the Sunday which at present is looking a bit sparse. Most of the interesting stuff is just Friday and Saturday.

What would I like to see a B2 is top of my wish list- have never seen one- albeit one did a flypast last year on Sunday- no good when you go on Saturday though. :'(

Happy Days

Bob, it was definitely on the Saturday last year and the callsign was Mytee21, here's the thread :- viewtopic.php?f=8&t=164798

Sun is shinin' in the sky,
There ain't a cloud in sight,
It's stopped rainin', everybody's in a play,
And don't you know,
It's a beautiful new day, hey, hey, hey. :clap: :thumbs:

One of my favorites is not in the flying line-up yet. Please can we have a A400M, always puts on a great display for such a large aircraft
