Wow that’s some wishful thinking above, you might wanna check the latest update!

A man can dream okay .

still I enjoyed the gripen E from 2023 and I love the G.91 from my warthunder days so I’m happy with today’s announcements.

Is it possible, theoretically, that if there is hardware deployed to ffd, that it could make some appearance, possibly flypast.

It's the longest of long shots but you never know?

If B-1 B-2 or B-52s get deployed to Fairford then there won't be RIAT.... Full stop.


Luckily way back in 1999, Allied Force ops over Serbia finished before the airshow. For those that remember how good that one turned out in the end....

Does this apply now then?

Pakistan air force status moved from "Invited" to "ongoing", making the previous x message about their JF-17s a step closer to reality I would say

Well unless NATO goes full on with Serbia again no not really... How old were you in 1999 just out of curiosity.

I do remember that. Spent a couple of days in the Cotswolds watching them launch at night , brilliant !

For anyone that hasn't yet twigged, the FRIAT announcement was the Fiat G91R.

Great additions this week!

Given the G.91 has a frecce tricolori livery, is there any chance of the two doing a flypast together? That would be cool.

I think thats the obvious intention. Taken from the website "the aircraft will be performing a series of special formation flypasts on Saturday and Sunday at RIAT25."
