RIAT 2005
THE ROYAL INTERNATIONAL AIR TATOO
FAIRFORD UK
16 & 17 JULY 2005

This was my first visit to RIAT ever and it was as good as I had dreamed of it being.

So much to see from round the world, on display as static exhibits and flying in a breath-taking show of air power.

Arrivals day on Friday was great and departures day on Monday gave a chance to see even the statics take to the air.

The weather was hot and sunny throughout the weekend until lunchtime on Monday, when there was a little drizzly rain. But who cares about that!

All in all, a brilliant and enjoyable weekend.

I am now looking forward to 2006!
