All I see is one jet finally moving off and loads of rain!

It's a trade show, doesn't move as fast as the public events.

You can 'rewind' the stream to get a bit more 'action'

Aaaah. I was expecting lots of action and missiles being fired and planes strafing the runways etc. Maybe I have been watching too many battle of britian films.

That is brilliant. As I am a sad fekker, I make wooden and plastic models and I will have a go at the A350. I love the markings and that looks like a beast to mask and paint, so challenge accepted.

I don't need a live stream to enjoy the sight of the odd unusual aircraft, as I live close enough to Farnborough for them to fly right over my head from time to time - which is how the boy and I got a very good view of an Airbus A380 as we went out to take his new bike (an upgrade now he is off the stabilisers) for a spin the other day.

The A380 is fecking enormous!

Going Sunday

Me too - can't wait.

How was RIAT?

How was RIAT?

RIAT was outstanding. Went on Friday and Saturday the F22 Raptor was awesome.

RIAT was outstanding.

I would certainly agree with that. Really hard to pick out a highlight for me though the F35B was pretty special.

It did chuck it down for a good hour around 3 30 today up here.

F-35 about to display

 

[Frutos]

Looking forward to today, just hope it's worth being awake this early!

 

[Curious Orange]

... so, the Red Arrows just performed a formation flypast of my house!

Made my weekend, and upset Junior Orange, who just missed it...

 

[Frutos]

Really enjoyed that.

The F35 did its hover demo right in front of where we were sat, which was nice. That, the F/A18 and the Typhoon put out some serious noise, and the A380 is surprisingly agile for such a huge aircraft.

Shame the BBMF display was only actually a Spitfire flypast, and that the Reds weren't allowed to do their stuff, but you can't have it all.

Overall, a great day.

Took my 1yr old son to his first proper Airshow there today. He loved all the aerobatic stuff but fell asleep for the fast jets.

I agree tho, the F35 was great. Did its VTOL display in front of me too!
