News about the site-layout:

On-base carparking will be at the southwestern and southeastern bomber loops of the airfield, Flying-display aircraft will operate from the northern side. For seeing them on the ground, and watch the spares, photobusses will operate as they used to do before the return from Cottesmore to Fairford.

[Stratofreighter]

A small-ish update...

According to
http://www.airshows.org.uk/2009/airshow ... eview.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; an RAF Beech King Air 200 will do a flying display at RIAT...

[Stratofreighter]

The Kingair Display is the substitute for Role Demo and Harrier display!

According to the official http://www.airtattoo.com/airshow/Aircra ... K_Military" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; there will be some "Harrier flying", but apparently no dedicated single aircraft demo
Or is it?

Harrier GR9 20(R) Squadron NATO 60th F

[Boontje]

I read that the Vulcan XH558 also gonne do a flight....
