Hi Guys, Hoping for some guidance. I'll be attending RIAT 2025 on the Sunday, as a first timer. I know the programme isn't available in advance and I'm trying to get an idea of how the flying display scheduling has worked on previous RIAT Sundays. So, I know the display runs from 10am, I'm particul...

Not much help but Sunday is usually the same display items as Saturday but in a different running order but also there maybe some additions or omissions so very difficult to predict what will be displaying when until you get the program Not always 2022 had the same running order for the display on ...

Aviation club won’t give you priority access when you’re stuck in miles of traffic. If it’s your first time at RIAT you’re better getting there as early as you can as there’s loads to see on static etc as well as the flying. The flying will be 10am till 5pm ish based on previous, they usually sprea...

Nice to see the US Army again. USAF AMC listed as declined so possibly no heavies from the Americans. Unless the an Reserve on ANG accept Good to see you back posting about RIAT Gary :thumb: I am with you good to see the US Army but for me it's not again it's the 1st time so really looking forward ...

I thought today's update was not bad at all, Glad the RAF Poseidon will be there very appropriate for the main theme. Still not heard anything about flypasts that were mentioned in a previous update, Also still nothing about what they are doing for Apache 50th which was mentioned a few weeks back. A...

On the Friday once on base when people buy the programme or get the sheet of lies

Can't see what else it could be, but hey-ho. Talking of FB comments: 'Doesn't look like we'll be seeing any Turkish/Greek Phantoms this year...' RIAT replies, 'We can confirm the Turkish Air Force will not be participating at RIAT this year'. Hmmm... As usual absolute muppets on Facebook Turkey can...

Can everyone please stop talking in code please.

What code?

That's a brilliant update today really please to see the ATL2 Atlantique back after having to depart early before the 2018 show.

5 updates still to go and from what we have so far i think it's looking to be another cracking show.

This week we have an assortment of aircraft joining our 'Eyes in the Skies' theme at RIAT25. Firstly, we're excited to confirm what will be one of the highlights of the flying display programme courtesy of the French Navy, with a rare appearance from their Atlantique maritime patrol aircraft. This a...

At least you worked that out yourself this time

How do you know? I might have nicked it from Facebook or X or wherever.

I doubt some of the absolute belters on Facebook or X even have the capacity to count that far going by their comments over the years about RIAT.

The end of today's update says still plenty of exciting aircraft they are working on for the show so there is bound to be a few big updates in the last 6 updates and they still have not mentioned anything about the flypasts DBH mentioned in an earlier weekly update this year.

Blimey, this continues to feel really rather underwhelming this year. By my reckoning, we have just 125 aircraft due at the moment. 24 of them are listed as civilian. Only about 67 for static. Wednesday and Thursday arrivals could be pretty quiet, especially as they to seem to like to get a good fe...

This week we're pleased to announce two more flying displays for RIAT25! We have now had confirmation from the Czech Air Force that their SAAB Gripen will be available for the show (in addition to their previously announced aircraft) and it will be performing in the flying display on Saturday & Sund...

Feel like the last Austrian QRA display in 2020(?) was as good as it gets, would love to see that again in the future The QRA Demo was in 2022 and it was absolutely brilliant but that was only the 2nd time it was seen anywhere in the UK, The other time was back in 2013 so the chances of it coming b...

Since I was born in the late 70s there has been a war in every single decade since then, Falklands, Iraq 1, Bosnia war, Iraq 2, Afghanistan and loads of other little wars going on that we never hear about so I would hardly call it peacetime.
