I can't remember other years but 2017 had the USAFE 70th Anniversary Flypast announced on 4th July.
I'm not putting money on it but seeing as there's 1 left off "that list" I'm gonna guess B-1 on the 4th :ninja: :halo: :lol:
It’s a nice thought, but Peter has just confirmed there is no B-1B Lancer coming to RIAT 2022 on UKAR.

Two out of three ain’t bad as Mr Loaf would have said.
Is there a reason Peter is not on FC and just on UKAR?

No idea tbh, but he has been a member of UKAR for many years ( ans was once a staffer)and I think he took over Toms profile when he took the role of Air Ops. To be fair he can't be everywhere and any feedback is great, especially when they are producing such a high quality show after three very strange years.

I will pay you £50 if this is true. I can't see it being confirmed 😅

Nope no B1 this year

Couple of questions about FRIAT that I hope someone can answer?

1st is I am sure I have heard others say that FRIAT members get into the airshow at 7am compared to the 7.30am for the rest of the public, But on looking at the times it's saying 7.30am for everyone.

2nd is how many rows are there in the FRIAT stand? Just wondering how far back I am.

A is the top row, usually about 11 row, then x which is a grass area infront of the Grandstand.

You don't usually get in early. Although at Blue entrance there is a FRIAT entrance the next crash gate up. Leads up a dedicated lane at the security check. Which can take just as long depends if they are on full searches. It may of changed though been a while since I used Blue

Gates open about the same time-assuming somebody hasn’t lost the keys (and that did happen one year ;) ). Personally, I get to blue carpark which is the one you need for the priority FRIAT gate about 6 and then sleep until 8 by which time the queue has gone and you’re not waiting in the rain :Oops:

Peter has a job to do as well us keep us muppets up to date and I guess ukar has a much longer history of RIAT discussion than fc.

I’m on h77 I feel you want to say hello - always good to put name to face.
