RIAT Glider Display... Fantastic
any others out there at RIAT this weekend....
big well done to the glider pilots for their display... in my opinion one of the best displays of the whole weekend.
looping at that low level.... that takes some balls.....not sure I'm gonna practice that one just yet...

Yeah,I've got to agree.......absolutely excellent you can see why they called it 'Lazy Lunch' very fitting.
Does'nt it just pi55 you off though,all the "Enthusiasts" appeared to go to sleep during the Glider displays somehow finding the Grass more entertaining.
I ended up telling a fella sat next to me that he was missing the best display of the day,that came after the solo Glider had just executed a lovely Flick roll

p.s The other highlights for me were Alan Wades display in the T67 and the formation aerotow by the chippies.

Rats! I was walking about during the gliding display and could only see the higher level part. The line-abreast loops were very pretty as was the five-in-line-abreasts by the Tillers and the Frogs.
Thanks to all who contributed to a terrific day, both those on the ground and those displaying their top rate skills in the air.
