As both days are mentioned (and RIAT having repeatedly stated all items were planned to fly both days), I would say this is for both Saturday and Sunday.RIAT wrote:Visitors to the airshow on July 7-8 will be able to see a repeat of the EIIR flypast, comprising 27 BAE Systems' Hawk fast jets
Don't forget there will also be three Hawks from the Navy in the formation.Frank van Hemert wrote:As they should be part of the Leeming unit (100sq) and from 4 FTS (Valley)

Uhm, the AN-12 was seen arriving at Farnborough yesterday link so it seems the Yak operates from FAB for the time being and hops to Fairford for the displays.ErwinS wrote:Will the An-12 also stay at Fairford??MrEFHK wrote:Yak-130 Mitten and Support An-12 make a refuel stop in Turku this morning.
