Ah yeah, you have to book very early for it.
I'm not sure I can make it now, trying to juggle work around.

I'm not going to be able to make it to RIAT this year guys, or to Farnborough which sucks.
However I'll be at Waddington on the 3rd/4th July as we have the live Typhoon challenge there again this year, although I won't see much of the display.

And Biggin Hill for me next weekend, and then Airbourne when I come back from Egypt in August

It was nice meeting up with the 3 guys (Crow, Ripper and Wombat?) on Saturday and giving them a tour of the Reds.

Now I didn't take a damn picture all weekend so I'm counting on you guys, haha.  :P

Oh, we got plenty of pics^^ Ripper went crazy with my camera making sure every little rivet was getting recorded from that hawk^^ I havent had time to sort out my pics yet (about 1500 total over the weekend) but will post some up as soon as I get around to sort them out. Was great meeting you Jason, and thanks again for your tour, was really awesome ;) And seeing the Dutch Apache pilot taking a leek next to his helicopter made my day ^^

Was great meeting Ripper and Wombat aswell, hope more of us can make it next time ;)

I'm even more gutted now that I couldn't get in at the gate because I didn't have an advanced ticket :-(

Hopefully I can come up to Scampton some time Jason and meet you guys.
I'll even bring my laptop and stick so you can give FC2 a go in the Hawk too (and my Typhoon also).

Hey guys!
RIAT was awesome this year! Thanks Jason for the tour and explanation of the hawk cockpit!
It was great to meet Crow and Ripper! Next year should be the whole team :)
Will post some pics of the Red visit asap.
