AIR TATTOO SET TO BE OUT OF THIS WORLD
O
rganisers of the Royal International Air Tattoo are promising visitors to this summer’s airshow that it will be out of this world.
Special Super Earlybird tickets for the event, which takes place at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire on July 19-21 2019, have already sold out for the Saturday,and as well as featuring the world’s most exciting aircraft, the 2019 airshow will turn its spotlight into space.
The airshow’s theme Air &Space: inspiring the Next Generation Air Force follows an announcement earlier this year that the Royal Air Force will be taking command and control of the UK’s military space operations, reflecting the importance of space in ensuring successful military operations around the world.
Andy Armstrong, Chief Executive of RAF Charitable Trust Enterprises, which organises the event, said that whilst the past 100 years saw military operations take place in the sky the next century would see activities increasingly stretching beyond the Earth’s atmosphere.
He said: “Aswell as welcoming air arms from around the world, we plan to demonstrate, through engaging and interactive displays, how space technology is being developed and how it is being used to help counter threats to our everyday lives.
“Our focus on space will be particularly poignant as the 2019 airshow will take place on exactly the same day,
