RIAT 2017

My annual trip from Scotland to RIAT was as ever an enjoyable experience, the main theme this year was USAF 70th and I was not disappointed. A B2 all the way from Whiteman gave us two excellent passes on Sunday, and over 20 USAF aircraft took part in either the static or flying. In addition there were many specilly painted aircraft, varying from a Pakistan AF C-130E to two lovely Ukraine AF Su-27s. An excellent RIAT although the weather could have been a bit better, my congratulations to all those a DBH who made it happen. I hope you enjoy these images
