Nice one re the C-2!
Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2022 - General Discussion Thread
No idea tbh, but he has been a member of UKAR for many years ( ans was once a staffer)and I think he took over Toms profile when he took the role of Air Ops. To be fair he can't be everywhere and any feedback is great, especially when they are producing such a high quality show after three very strange years.Red-Eye-Knight wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 6:22 pmIs there a reason Peter is not on FC and just on UKAR?Brian2112 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 4:50 pmIt’s a nice thought, but Peter has just confirmed there is no B-1B Lancer coming to RIAT 2022 on UKAR.James Cutting wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 2:48 pm

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2022 - General Discussion Thread
Couple of questions about FRIAT that I hope someone can answer?
1st is I am sure I have heard others say that FRIAT members get into the airshow at 7am compared to the 7.30am for the rest of the public, But on looking at the times it's saying 7.30am for everyone.
2nd is how many rows are there in the FRIAT stand? Just wondering how far back I am.

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo 2022 - General Discussion Thread
A is the top row, usually about 11 row, then x which is a grass area infront of the Grandstand.
You don't usually get in early. Although at Blue entrance there is a FRIAT entrance the next crash gate up. Leads up a dedicated lane at the security check. Which can take just as long depends if they are on full searches. It may of changed though been a while since I used Blue

Peter has a job to do as well us keep us muppets up to date and I guess ukar has a much longer history of RIAT discussion than fc.
I’m on h77 I feel you want to say hello - always good to put name to face.
