Dambusters meets Top Gun at RAF Fairford on July 15th 2018. The most enjoyable, dramatic, awe inspiring, Incredible, memorable and exhillerating display by pilots using aircraft from the 1st, 2nd world wars; the cold war and modern conflicts. The top gun danger zone routines are something else; the Jets flying on thrust and air brakes almost at stalling speed is a spectacle in its own right and is simply amazing. The BBMF and the Heritage Flight performed near the end with the Lancaster; Dakota; 2 Spitfires and a P51 Mustang. Some of the Jets that did a straight fly by some travelling at 700 mph and there 2 that nearly broke the sound barrier. Static displays and stalls a mile and a half long. It was a well organised Air Show and exhibitions. The runway is 2 miles long and the attractions were from horizon to horizon.

My personal score is 10/10 & I award the Royal International Air Tattoo my Gold Star for Excellence.
