RIAT 2022 Airshow

The Speakeasy
1

I love a good airshow and the Royal International Air Tattoo preview day at RAF Fairford did not disappoint.

The usual Red Arrows, Spitfires, C130, Korean Black Eagles display team and the totally awesome RAF Typhoon :sunglasses:

Lots of static displays too, with my all time favourite F-16 pictured below.

Is anyone else going this weekend? Riding the bike definitely helped bypass the traffic queues. :wink:

I won’t be going but I wish I could. I used to live quite close to Fairford. My mate and I cycled down one beautiful summer’s day to see the space shuttle that had been flown over on the back of a 747. They stopped to refuel on their way to the Paris Airshow.

Oh, one of my friends was there again today and she met the Red Arrows along with this bloke in the suit :sunglasses:
