Don’t suppose anyone has heard of what could potentially be this years theme/themes??

I think it’s planetavgeek you need to look for

Can anyone clarify if the Puma was there, I seem to have missed it, if so ?

I think they may have a stall there? There is the following - https://www.airtattoo.com/the-airshow/a ... 7b-dakota/

Possibly then !

Don’t suppose DBH will try to fill the gaps with something else’s last minute will they ? Whilst some F-16E/F's would be a great replacement, unfortunately anything that could have replaced them would have already been invented and declined. Swedish HF? 🤔 That is a good point tbh, wasn’t there also...

I’d guess so also .. be nice to announce tornado, E-3, UH-60 and a c-130 from them but I can dream

Was also interesting to note they mentioned “next week is there longest day where they plan circa 250 arrival slots” .. a quick count up shows 168 confirmed types if they all base out of Fairford. So could be some bumper additions in the last remaining 4 updates !! Do they publicly release details ...

No French Rafale this year only UK show is Duxford Airshow

GAF Typhoon Display has announced RIAT as one of their 6 display venues according to Bavarian Tigers and European Airshows

Nighthawk Demo self confirmed according to their socials !!!

Edit : alas it too be a spoof after some deep digging, but their has been rumours of it making an appearance since the US revised their testing and training unit with them ?

Anyone heard any news of a wildcat display this year ?? Heard a whisper of a rumour they may display at RIAT?

A Reds formation with the Gnats would be awesome to see.

Seems as though RIAT posted something hinting at this on their social medias today

Be interesting to see if the Polish Air Force send any MiG-29 or Su-22 before retirement end of 2026 and 2024 respectively?!

Would be nice for an RAF F-35 display team?!

Hi all,

Due to some increase activity from the base last night are they conducting night flying this week or a mixture of both ?

Cheers

A 4th of July update isn’t looking to promising

Be nice for an AC-130 in the 4th July announcement !

Was looking forward to the 2 Typhoons kitted out but it appears the Air Force has back tracked idea !
