RIAT cancelled for another year.
Don't know what anyone else thinks but I'm disappointed to say the least that RIAT has had to cancel again. Apparently its too big to re-schedule to September which Cosford has done, finger X'd. Roll on 2022?!?!?!?!

Didn't surprise me with the uncertainty of Covid at the moment. Anything on that scale would take a lot of replanning to host at short notice, 2022 would be a more feasible year!

GeeRam,
I can see how the Hangar construction would have an impact but they must have known about it for sometime? I understand this is all to do with moving Mildenhall based units to Faiford?!

Yes, Mildenhall has been reprieved, and the units there are now not moving to Fairford.
However, they are still going ahead for the big new hangar for the deployments from stateside of various bomb wings.

There's a thread over on Fighter Control that list the planned works. As well as the new hangar there are various storage areas and resurfacing of the taxiways in the north east corner.
