A Festive Greeting from RIAT

To all of you who visit here
We wish to extend a seasonal cheer;
Spectators, traders, helpers too
Where would we be without all of you?

And aviologists – will your sack be chocker
With MiGs and Hawks, perhaps a Fokker?
When Santa overhead you hear -
Do you inspect his landing gear?

Whatever treat Santa may bring
Everyone here is sure of one thing
Nothing will compare to the cracker in store . . .
. . . at the Royal International Air Tattoo 2004!


yes a Fokker! i already booked a seat on a Fokker 70 from KLM to visit the RIAT in 2004. i think it will be cool landing at a gaint airshow with about 400 aircrafts and 100 000 people watching you taking of!  8)

this year, they expect the F-22 to do a fly by. why? because the week after the RIAT it's airshow at Farnborough so... Shocked

also Hawks and Hercs will be celebrated at RIAT together with a huge Fighter meet...i can't wait.

are you going?  Wink

For one reason or another I missed the last two RIAT shows but I will be going this year. I imagine flying in would be awesome but I will be braving the nightmare that is RIAT traffic jams no doubt.

I'd love to go, but for one reason or another I hope that I willl be otherwise engaged, having a drunken celebration of something happening on the Friday night...

...and the resulting hangover (I can't take my alcohol since I retired from being a student)...
