Riat 2015

It's drawing nearer...I've coughed for the family to go...and the flying display (confirmed list), and I know there is still time for others to be added, looks pretty fecking weak I have to say. In fact it looks si ilar to a Waddo line up.

Where's the U.S. Stuff?

Anyone else braving it?

I hope it is similar to Waddo, because if Waddo fails to get another show, then RIAT (alongside cosford), will be THE flimsy RAF contribution to any display of ....force?
Nonetheless, it IS currently a rather weakened programme?

There will not be a show at Waddo in either this year or 2016. They are looking for an alternative venue for an East of the country Autumn show but it's early days.

Fair ford always got the U.S. Stuff that Waddo failed to draw...but not even a F22 has confirmed this year.

RIAT what a moral tool that is. Plenty of bods, both staff and trainees, from the secret west midlands training base will be there. RIAT the gift that keeps on giving. The lads I have spoken to are overjoyed at having had their training suspended for a while with the additional benefits of tented accommodation and working weekends.

For a corporate event.

"We need to compress training!"

"How about not providing this military contractors show and sell with manpower for free and cut a fortnight off training?"

"Er, no."
