Re: Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2022

DSC_5856_00001.jpg Not sure where to start here.... Still spent from the 6 day RIAT experience... Most of it under an unrelenting sun and the last few days in record heat wave conditions. DSC_9504-001.JPG Had massive expectations built up from missing two airshow seasons, and this played into a sen...

Koksijde Open Door, Belgium - July 6, 2022

A happy coincidence puts me in Belgium during the first week of July. Anyone here attend this in past years? Curious if it is accessible by public transit and for any tips/comments?

Thanks

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2022

I don't think I have seen the Hungarian Gripen demo since RIAT 2013.... Its demo included an awesome dump and burn.... Really hoping that it is still allowed and still part of the demo!

Hind!

There was a time I could not remotely dream of seeing one of those fly.

Re: Sky Drive 2022 (presented by Airshow London)

Was on the fence as to the new yellow zone tickets. Have loved the ASL photo pit experience in the ' before times' but the far south position thus year had me a little concerned (Had a slightly more southern position as a suggestion, but this is all the way down) ... Could lead to some different per...

Re: Sky Drive 2022 (presented by Airshow London)

Not the decision I wanted, but I can completely understand the rationale. Proven track record and best chance of surviving any protocol changes should the pandemic continue to negatively evolve.

Will be curious to what variations they add.

Re: Airshow London 2022

It has killed me missing the past two years. The line ups were great, particularly 2020 (Great work made that happen but unrealistic to ever expect the like again). That said, I do hope they figure out how to bring back a static display. I rather enjoy touring the static, and well each static is ano...

Re: Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) 2022

After two years of Air Show drought I booked my Newfoundland - UK air tickets for RIAT 2022, this evening

Rolled over my Friat tickets the past two years and booked accommodations this past summer, so this was last real hurdle.

Bring on the weekly announcements.

Re: Sky Drive 2021 (presented by Airshow London)

Also looking forward to commentary, video and photos.

Second year in a row missing this due to the current unpleasantness. Bring on 2022.
