Well I was disappointed. Look at the RAF participation in the flying display. Sea King, Tucano, Sentry, Typhoon. Leave aside the Reds and BBMF (with a single Tornado) and that was the total of RAF hardware shown to the public.

I know there are operational constraints but I feel this was a poor representation of the albeit limited capabilities we have today.

Having said that, it was a good day - the Austrian role demo was particularly impressive and it was great to see the Viggen.

Cheers
