According to a team member I spoke to it was not their wish but a decision of the RIAT display organisers. Many punters were still trying get in at this stage and probably didn't get the view they wanted. The Global Hawk was a mock up SHJ |
Global Hawk mock-up probably there to show off to visiting Brass,
rather than to 'ordinary punters'.... |
SpringHeeledJack,
The Global Hawk would have been the mock-up that was on static at the RAF Waddington Airshow. At Waddington it was mocked up to represent a US Navy MQ-4C Triton Northrop-Grumman MQ-4C Triton | Flickr - Photo Sharing! Northrop Grumman MQ-4C Triton makes first flight Global Hawk mock-ups have been a feature at RIAT for a number of years. 2012 Northrop Grumman RQ-4 Global Hawk (FSM) 'EuroHawk' mock-up during 2009 http://i382.photobucket.com/albums/o...T/DSCF6028.jpg 2007 Gallery :: RIAT - Fairford (15/07/07) :: DSC00476 2005 http://janverbeke.smugmug.com/Airpla...RW_2557-XL.jpg |
Thankyou TEEEJ, as ever a comprehensive answer from you! Any idea why it's still at Fairford and not parted out/shipped out/stripped out ?

No problem, SHJ.
I have no idea? I suppose it will eventually get dismantled and sent to Mildenhall? Or will it? ;) http://www.flankers-site.co.uk/model...%20cockpit.jpg |
