Well after the farce that was parking in the P + V this morning it turned out to be quite a good day in the company of Mark G, Mike and SteveB and was also good to catch up with Colin again today. In no order:
Hopefully will give you some idea of whats visited today, for anyone interested I will be updating this thread at the end of tomorrows arrivals. Also worth noting the rumour doing the rounds, is the vulcan will be turning up with 2 x vc10's in formation on friday

i'm very jealous, couldn't make it last year (although that wasn't a bad thing) and term doesn't finish until next week. No way in the world the head will let me leave unruly classes!
To all who go, have a great time. Wish i was there with you but shall have to just enjoy everyones photos

I do like the head-on shots... different and very interesting! Sorry to hear about the bad weather - keeping my fingers crossed that the weather will improve.

Thanks all for the updates so far..it's been very valuable!!
Me and my two boys comming down from Suffolk tomorrow.....will we really need wellies?????
The last time we went to RIAT was 2006 and it was a scorcher!....missed 07 and arrived at RIAT08 to find it cancelled...so it's important that the three of us have a good day this year.......
Will we be parking on the adjacent farmers fields or on the airfield???

Phantom & Mirage are nice in crap conditions, mood adds to the Toom shot. At least the Mirage was nice and close for ya!
