Royal International Air Tattoo 2022 Highlights | Friday

[@gusgone4527]

I still think those soviet era helicopters look amazingly intimidating. Having served during the Cold War and learning to identify all Warsaw Pact types. The Hind Mi 24 (V or VM I think) beast still makes the hairs on my back stand to attention every time I see one. Hip, not so much. Even though the Mi8 could pack a punch too.

[@panameragts9712]

[@DannoAviation]

The sheer skill of those Red Arrows pilots must not be underestimated… absolutely incredible time-after-time. Thoroughly enjoyed this!

[@perfectly0misaligned]

When I looked at the lineup I wasn't that fussed on going to begin with but it turned out to be one of the best I've gone to! The F15 and F35 that buzzed over when it had finished was unbelievable.

[@josephmarkey9096]

I was right underneath them both when they hit the burners and accelerated away. Deafening!

[@perfectly0misaligned]

@@josephmarkey9096 amazing!

[@NotAJollyPotato]

The lineup this year is looking pretty good. The Rafale is returning, swedish SK60 confirmed, and the Patrulla Aquila are also coming abck. The highlight of last year was definately the Black Eagles for me. Where you there when Zeus flew over the crowd line with afterburner on?

[@perfectly0misaligned]

@@NotAJollyPotato Yeah it's looking alright. If they get a Mirage I'll be a happy girl haha. Still waiting to see an A10 but they're not coming again. No? When did that happen? I only go on the Fridays.

[@AviationHighlights]

It was down as a static display but this year they’ve been very good with the statics’ arrivals. They’ve allowed some of them to do ‘run and breaks’ followed by low approaches/go arounds. Makes it very worthwhile as the majority of people want to see the aircraft fly! :)

[@michellepenney8218]

Watching from South Africa... fantastic flying 👍

[@kronos4136]

My first time 2022, having bought tickets 2019, and I thought the lack of British and American aircraft was quite noticeable considering this is the UK and it was the 75th Anniversary of US aircraft too. I only had Friday Tickets. I was so disappointed in fact, that I have already booked three days next year with the early bird prices. You come to realise as you get older that not everything just happens as you wish for but make good use of what there is and appreciate the sheer planning and effort that brings it all together. It was a remarkable day for me and was sad just to go the one day but it was that one day that makes you realise just how good it all is and the different countries' pilots and ground crew eager to answer questions and take pics with was just awesome. Thanks to them all for their efforts and all the volunteers, even the car park attendants who wanted me to almost park in someone's boot

[@jhoodfysh]

Really great job on keeping the aircraft centered in the frame. Gratz on a job very well done.

Seven Red Arrows instead of nine and that’s because two were sent home late in training and, according to rumors, court-martialled. However NOBODY is talking about why they are forced to display as a seven ship this year.

[@AviationHighlights]

The flying displays are usually almost identical between the two days. But if the last couple of years are anything to go by, there may be a special un-announced flypast on either one of the days.

@@AviationHighlights nice! One day…

[@mambastu]

Thanks for uploading this. I used to go to RIAT years ago but the last time I drove I spent from 9.30am to 13.30am in the traffic jam to get in and have only been back once since and was then really disappointed with the lack of aircraft diversity - can't remember the exact year. Have to say it looks like there are a far more diverse range of aircraft now which is good to see. First went when it was at Greenham Common in 1984 and it was amazing seeing all the different types of aircraft. I'd love to see a RAF historic jet flight (like the swedish one) - how about the Lightning, Vulcan and Phantom :) I know it would never happen but wouldn't it be great.

[@Mors_Inimicis]

Last show at Greenham was 1983 . The day is a bit of a slog and for me (another one who remembers the good old days at Greenham) the queues for the security checks are a pain. No security back in the day and nothing went wrong but then I guess the authorities could trust the inhabitants of the U.K. a lot more pre 1997 The key nowadays is to leave for the show as early as you can or better still try and stay in accommodation not too far away. 2022 was my first time back since 2017 as I’d grown tired of the aforementioned problems, however it’s amazing how a pandemic and having several of your favourite airshows disappear forever from the calendar can make you reassess your options and I bought my ticket with a week to go. I was certainly glad I did !

Looking at this screen today, rather than proud of our country, I thank and thank the British Empire for helping us in difficult times.

[@w01fgaming42]

when there was the red arrows someone said the dead sparrows !!!!!

[@mattmatt7305]

The fact that one of the themes was the 75th Anniversary of the USAF the US contribution to the proceedings, on a US base, was absolutely piss poor. The flying display this year was enormously average and also the so-called “premium enclosures” had quite clearly undergone some cost cutting and were totally unacceptable as a “premium / luxury” experience. RIAT needs to seriously sort itself out or it is no longer worth the money at all.

[@patrickmalone1902]

Cant pay on the day anymore.

[@phantomf4747]

Too bad they never continued to update the Eurotrash Typhoon. Decent playform. It might have been viable as a 4th gen even today, but budget cuts and "no war" foresight kept it to a footnote in the history books.

[@BasedF-15Pilot]

Might prove a very bad decision. As an F-15C pilot, I found the Typhoon second only to the F-22 in raw power ability to keep up with a clean or 1-bag F-15, which translates to 2-circle fight prowess and the ability to add vertical at will. A C-model F-15 was still a little stronger and could outrun a Typhoon especially up high where we usually CAP. The Rafale was similar to a Typhoon but not nearly as powerful under G. The Rafale was more like a Growler with it's electronics package than anything else. The Typhoon is more dangerous than an F-16 or F-35 in a merge or perch or anything close bfm really. Sad to see politicians ruin things they don't understand.

[@FuzzWoof]

Never continued to update it? I don't know about other services, but the RAF are still very actively updating the Typhoon. Huge pile of systems upgrades coming before 2024, and a brand new AESA radar has just been commissioned.

[@richardwilliams6132]

Not sure how up to speed you are. Typhoons were particularly effective against most types at "Top Gun" exercises, and other evaluation deployments.. They continue to be upgraded in the RAF with electronics, weapons, and new radar packages coming through. RAF fast jet pilot training is acknowledged as superb which helps. The next generation Tempest the proof of concept flight of which is due in 3 years will eventually supersede the Typhoon.

[@phantomf4747]

@@richardwilliams6132 While I concur they have been updated, not moving forward like say the F15 to F15E, and now F15EX is more of what I was getting at. The EF has become fodder now in this generation of fighters. While still a threat, easily rendered to clean up missions when F35 and F22 are doing their thing. Red Flag over the years has proven that. Tempest will exciting to see. Trust me, I all for our friends having killer machines!

[@richardwilliams6132]

@@phantomf4747 "Red Flag has proven that?" I don't think so. Even recent exercises show otherwise. The EF is more than a match for most of the aircraft it is ever likely to have to combat in the foreseeable future. Certainly, until a replacement comes on line.. Contrary to the US pilot's comment there are plenty of RAF pilots who have flown the F15 and prefer the EF so it's a matter of choice. with certain characteristics of the EF superior still even after the F15 upgrade. If dogfighting still exists then ASEA radar and long-range missiles will determine outcomes, hypersonic or otherwise, The ability to multi-target and if necessary control drones are all in the mix. It comes down to skill and resources where the US funding outstrips all except China.

[@Tconcept]

Mmm nothing new or exciting for the past 30 years, still nice to see a viggen and draaken.
