18. I Predict a RIAT — Кассета

On Wednesday 4 November, the Royal International Air Tattoo announced it is leaving RAF Fairford for Boscombe Down. We hadn’t planned an episode this week, but this one couldn’t wait. Dave, Bradley and Aled are joined by Ed Parsons to talk through the move. We look at why RIAT had to go, why so few airfields could take a show this size, and what we remember from the old Boscombe Down air shows of the 1990s. We also cover what the layout might mean for photographers, with the sun likely to be a problem and a display line that could run the wrong way. We talk about park and ride, camping, and the lack of detail so far on where to stay and how to get in. We also think about the local businesses around Fairford that are losing out. Plenty is still unknown, and we are speculating more than once. But we are looking forward to it.
