On Saturday there was a couple of pilots from Esquadrilha da Fumaça the Brazilian Air Force's air demonstration team in FRIAT, couldn't really understand what they said in broken English :lol: but it sounded like they wanted or planning to bring the display team back next year after the disappointment of 2008. Would be good if it happened

Would be nice the the RAF could send a
Voyager
Globemaster
Hercules

I believe they are based at an airfield called Brize Norton
only around 10 miles away so should not be to much of a problem !

mind you come to think of it I don't remember seeing any of the above at this years RIAT
so maybe there is a problem , despite a good number of each sitting in the sun at there home base

After seeing the Ramex Delta at Kleine Brogel I've gotta say after the take off and first pass the rest of the demo is nothing special apart from seeing two Mirage 2000Ns strutting their stuff. Personally preferred the Tornado role demo. Although I would like to see Ramex Delta at RIAT

Czech Mil-17 Duo was fantastic through and would love to see that again

Personally would like any of the following

Flying
Austrian Typhoon QRA Demo
Rafale (hate to admit it but it still impresses me each time)
Finnish F-18
Czech Mil-17 Duo
BAF, RNLAF, RDAF etc F-16 (F-16 aint going to be around forever so more the merrier)
Hellenic F-16 (Wasn't that impressed at KB, would like to see it again)

Static
MC-130J
CV-22B
Super Étendard (Last chance?)
Colombian KC-767 (Shame it cancelled last year)
Greek or Turkish F-4
Greek T-2 Buckeye
French E-2 Hawkeye (Damn that illusive plane )
Anything Japanese

That's a start :whistle: :lol:

Better chance of the Omani Jags than the German tiger typhoon, at least the former are still flying.
