Would seem that a RIAT move is possibly in the offing.
See
BBC NEWS | England | Gloucestershire | Air show may transfer to new home Now where could they move it? Somewhere the weather this time of year is warm, there is a considerable amount of Aircraft deployed and the sun is often shining....:rolleyes: If you can't bring Mohammed to the Mountain, perhaps bring the Mountain to Mohammed :oh: |
The role demo would be outstanding!:ok:

Ermm ISK? +22, dry and sunny all weekend:ok:

Ermm ISK? +22, dry and sunny all weekend The locals are friendlier and easier to understand. It's also easier to get to. |
I think Musa Qala would be a better option. The locals are friendlier and easier to understand. It's also easier to get to. |
It was a damn good show for 2 years at boscombe down
|
Is this just not a case of "tactical arm twisting" by TP to get the yanks to allow car parking on base during RIAT??.

Applying Service logic..............there is only one place they could move to;
St Mawgan..................:eek: |
Cottesmore was very good and easier to get to
|
What about somewhere near the M25? That's a brilliant car park!
|
I hear that RIAT were interested in taking over Yeovilton Air Day a couple of years ago. Perhaps the interest may be rekindled?

Perhaps AHA could sell the contract to them:) Boscombe would get my vote, right beside a main trunk road, not too far from VL, however as mentioned above, is this a ploy to get on base parking back or do the USAFE really want RIAT off to pastures new. |

Duxford is next to the M11:ok:
|
Or just a short hop away if your names Sir John.....
Or how to turn Black 6 into Black 9 in one easy lesson... |
Duxford is next to the M11 You'd need a lot more than 1500m to stage RIAT. |
Wilson Airport, Nairobi - perfect, good wx, low traffic and you can hold in the Rift Valley.:ok:
Closer to home - Boscombe was good, straight off the A303 and you are in. |
My vote is still St Mawgan, with its International Airport, improved A30 links, endless accommodation (if you like caravans), great food, (if you like overpriced Fish Restaurants and Pasties) and a whole county of pointyheads that would willingly attend to see the bright shiny things.
Excellent weather at all times too. |
