Aww I used to live near RAF Fairford and go to RIAT... Awesome show, I really wanted to go this year because of the F-22! I was there the year they got rained off! Were there 2 of them?

Oh you know, they usually had genuine USSR high grade rubber wheels...

There were two F-22's only one flew though, the other was just a spare in case they broke one. Think I have a pic of them both with a KC-135 and sort of heat hased out. Not the best shot ever but hey!

I was using a 75-300 all day. Quite handy for the air desplay, had to stand back for the static though.

@Soviet: ahhh, they be the Capitalist Dunlop tires then?

I hope it doesn't rain at Farnborough, should be some good F-22 displays.

Those are some really nice pics. Looks like it was a really good show too.

That would have been amazing but the F-15 wasn't flying on Saturday. No F-22 either. Still, got an awesome B-52 fly-over, F-16, F-18, C-130, Vulcan and Battle of Britain memorial flight.
