So RIAT is on there. I almost feel sorry about that now.

As usual I'm including major/international events only. For those who don't know, Patrulla Aguila are x7 C-101 Aviojets and Patrulla Aspa are x5 EC-120 helicopters. The Typhoon and Hornet are of course solo displays. Apr 25-29: ILA Berlin, Schönefeld, Germany (Patrulla Aguila) Jun 2: Air Expo, Muret...

Patrulla Aguila have self-confirmed. Not everyone's cup of tea, but I like them.

Just out from the UK CAA today - straight-wing ex-military jets will once again be permitted to fly aerobatics from Feb 28th. This is huge news as aerobatics have been banned ever since the Shoreham crash in August 2015, since when the UK classic jet circuit has shrunk exponentially. Restrictions wi...

Shame it's not the ALCA pairs display, which I really enjoyed last year, but I'll take that as an update!

Glad you had a decent day and my advice was somewhat useful. Good to hear your thoughts!

Well that was brilliant fun! Here's what I got over the weekend. Two flights in the back of the Cessna (through perspex, sadly) and two night ground runs.

Nice update. Plus an extra late night addition with the self-confirmation of the Belgian AF A109 display, which will be supporting an amazing three UK airshows this year. No flares I would assume, because it'll be operating from Fairford. I'd genuinely prefer the performers who incorporate flares op...

We're really getting into that time of year when schedules are coming thick and fast! First Belgian schedule out today: the A109 display team. Jun 9-10: RAF Cosford Airshow, RAF Cosford, UK Jun 24: Meeting Aérien GAMSTAT, Valence - Chabeuil, France Jun 30: Ursel Avia, Ursel, Belgium Jul 13-15: Royal...

I'm really not the best person to ask about that, I've only been to four or five! From my experiences and from what I've seen online, RIAT and Radom are consistently very good. The rare events at Payerne are epic. The Belgian AF Days, Luchtmachtdagen, SIAF and the other European big shows are often ...
