A "razorback B-model Mustang P-51" is quite rare , a "D-model" with a bubble canopy is not....

A daily USAFE Flypast featuring C-130J, KC-135, F-15C, F-15E and F-16C is announced today on the RIAT website.

[Fred85]

A Ukrainian news outlet called "Ltava" has posted a news story reporting that a pair of Su-27s and an Il-76MD will be attending RIAT 2017 - including a flying display which has been approved by RAF officials.

We await official confirmation as to whether this report is accurate or not.

On Saturday 8 July 2017 the canopy of Berlin Express got shattered in a dive during Flying Legends Duxford.

before, during -after the shattering of the canopy .
A lot of loose pieces indeed!

It is now rather doubtful whether this "Razorback Mustang" will fly during RIAT Fairford.
