Well, they do a pretty good job usually. :lol:

However, participation from UAE/Thailand/Morocco would certainly be welcome. :thumb:

I would love see the poles back with SU22s or MIG29s, not so much F16s but I wouldn't complain....

As it's the 75th anniversary of RAF Fairford this year, maybe a memorable flypast from a version of each of the frames which have operated from there during it's life... I'd take just a static line as they'll all have to fly in!

Red Arrows
KC10
KC135

Ok, a few might not be flying still...

anything new to the show would be a start. im not against civilian aircraft i spot them like many others do but the last few years they been filling the static instead of military jets, transports etc. its not a specticle like it was it was the standard barer for airshows and now in my opinion its falling into the depths of the odd good jet and the rest old JPs bulldogs n islanders

In case you don't know, the organisers send plenty of invites to many air arms. They can only put on display those that accept those invitations. So what would you rather have, empty tarmac and gaps in the flying, or civilian types/teams to fill the space?

It really would be good to see a Wittmund based A4 Skyhawk.
They have previously said they would appear but cancelled at the last moment.....

Very nice indeed Gary, I believe that there is 3 F-15s from the USA and 1 Belgain F-16 that has also been specially painted for D-Day remembrance, If true imagine them all lined up at RIAT along with the specially painted A-10 Thunderbolt from last year and the Norwegian F-16 now that would be some sight.

If you mean the Lakenheath specially painted F-15s then yes they do exist and have been covered on the forum quite a bit. Just look in the photo section and you should find them.
