Im camping 300 yds from the airfield for the weekend... no chance of me driving there on the day! (see the simv map)  ;D

I guess you're not photographing then.

I don't know... my cameras pretty poor. I did plan to film with my camcorder though, how high/substatial is the fence? At Culdrose its nothing more than a peice of rope but i presume it will be something a bit more at RIAT.

So is this meet up happening? And if so, when and where?

I'm not sure how a couple of Su-30s is more ordinary than a bunch of F-16s!

Have to agree with you there, i'm not looking forward to the T-Birds ground routine at all and the ineviable atrocious music, complete with American commentator saying how great they are. Something tells me the T-Birds may be a bit dissapointing after all this hype.

Very little of it is ordinary to me though, I've only ever been to Culdrose Airday before. Still, pray for good weather!  :)

The timings are up on flightline now - http://www.airshows.org.uk/2007/airshows/riat/fd.html
