RIAT 2018

Well we got home from France on the Saturday, so it was a quick turn round and we were on our way to Fairford. Whilst we were at home we had to change over a lot of the kit as at Fairford we were going to have no electric hook up.
We arrived at Fairford and met up with Rob, and our base camp was soon established. Although it was only Tuesday the field was very full.

Early morning arrivals

Over the next few days we watched planes arriving, and we also saw all of the display teams practicing.
Chris, a friend of Rob's arrived on Thursday, ready for the show which opened on the Friday
The following afternoon I popped home to collect Izzy and Freddie.   Kathy, Ethan and Dennis Dog arrived.

Freddie and Dennis

We all settled down in the burning sunshine to watch the displays

being carried out above our heads.

Early on Sunday morning Ami arrived and then she took Izzy and Freddie into the show, and they really loved it!

After an excellent six days we cleared up on the Monday and headed for home!
