| Hot!! That is one of the first thing that comes to mind when talking about Fairford 2013, the weather was stunning which resulted in great pictures. Also a talk of the day was the absence of the US defence aircraft due to the sequestration, not even the USAFE aircraft were on show. The 2013 RIAT was soon to be called the worst RIAT ever to be held and in numbers or exotic airforces it was indeed not quite overwhelming as well, even a lot of RAF types did not make it RAF Fairford. | |||
| The static was parked in the usual Fairford way, but even then the manage to squeeze a lot of jets in small areas, which made static photography nearly impossible. | |||
| On both show days the days started cloudy but in the afternoon the sun came out, on Saturday there was the treat of the British Airways A380 flying with the red Arrows which was done on Sunday with the A400M. A first for this air show was the flying display of the Italian KC-767A, but this edition also saw 2 last performances by the VC10 and the Tristar as they as due for retirement end of this year. | |||
| Anyway, let us hope the 2014 edition will make us kind of forget this one with a much better and larger show. | |||
