RIAT 2013
The annual Air Tattoo shines in the sun!
The show with something for everyone: that was the verdict after crowds flocked to the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford just outside Swindon this weekend (20-21 July).
Following a hot build-up to the show, around 130,000 visitors enjoyed a feast of flying and static displays from the likes of the world-renowned Red Arrows, the classic Vulcan & Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and even the British Airways Airbus A380!

Celebrity guests included Carol Vorderman, Countryfile presenter Adam Henson and Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden. Dignitaries included HRH The Duke of Kent, HRH Prince Feisal of Jordan and Chief of the Air Staff Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Dalton.
Organisers were delighted to report that the mini-heatwave brought out the crowds, with the show sold-out on Saturday and Sunday.
Watch the best of the action!...
