Re: RIAT 2019- 19th/20th/21st July
A long shot: on Saturday, a rather large UAV could be seen in one of the two smaller hangars on the north side. In the left hangar were the Blades and the Royal Jordanian Falcons, in the right one (with fences in front) was a UAV that looked a bit like a RQ-4 Global Hawk. Does anyone have any info on that? Was it real, or was it a mock-up, for instance?

And another one: which Chinook was visible behind the Frecce Tricolori on saturday? There was only one there, but apparently two had arrived.

I do have a picture with both of them on it. One of the Chinooks was hangared on Fridaynight to be towed into position during Saterdaymorning (like the T346)frank kramer wrote:Ah. I thought that was one bird, as I moved position between the two photo's with them included Nice.

ZA708 was towed to the flightline on Saturday, visually confirmed.
Re: RIAT 2019- 19th/20th/21st July
ZD983 was not seen today (departures). Did it leave earlier this weekend or is it still at FFD?

Does anyone know the serial of the French C130J, which was parked on the flightline?

To answer my own question: it WAS a RQ-4, and it WAS a mock-up (as was to be expected)...frank kramer wrote:A long shot: on Saturday, a rather large UAV could be seen in one of the two smaller hangars on the north side.

Where was the visiting SR.22 from FAF parked saturday? Between the other civil props at north?
Also a visiting Bulldog could be seen near the 2 Tucanos and Grob115s.
