Here is my take on the Royal International Air tattoo departures day.
Most of the assets which left the site on the Monday are featured here in some way - some at very close quarters.
As well as the contributions from the likes of the US, Canada, Japan and more, there is a massive European air arms contingent, from the likes of Hungary, Germany, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, The Czech Republic, Holland, Belgium, Finland, Denmark, Sweden, etc . . .
Heavy aircraft on here include the US E4B Nightwatch, The C17, A400M, multiple C130's, while the smaller fighter contingent includes F35, F15, plus multiple F16, F18, Eurofighters. Also Saab Gripens, Panavia Tornados, and classic jets such as the Viggen, Draken, Hunter, and an A4 Skyhawk.
Helicopters feature strongly here too, with the Hind, Chinook, Lynx, Gazelle, and many more.
If that is not enough some of the World's top display teams are here including The Korean Black Eagles, The Italian Air Force Frecce Tricolori, The Swiss PC7 Team, and the RAF Red Arrows.
All in all a near 100 minute festival of military aviation to be savoured . . . enjoy!
