Colourful Tails at RIAT 2019
Aug 12, 2019 04:40:25 #
Every July the Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) takes place at RAF Fairford in England.
This year there were a number of celebrations, such as 75th Anniversary of D-Day, 70th Anniversary of NATO, even 800 years of Dannebrog (the Danish national flag). Here are a few aircraft tails celebrating these events as well as a few just celebrating......
All were taken using a Canon EOS 7D with either a Tamron 70-200 or a Tamron 150-600. They were taken in RAW format processed using DxO PhotoLab 2.

Great shots. I am envious! I was there in 2010, and had booked again in (I think) 2012 but that whole weekend's show was cancelled due to heavy rain. A wonderful air show. I was lucky enough to see and get great shots of both the Avro Lancaster and Avro Vulcan.

Great job, each photo subject is evenly proportioned, either from crop or out the box, well done!

Great share. I did not realize the Turks are still flying F-4s...which first flew in 1958. We left a lot of them scattered/embedded around SouthEast Asia.
