Default Fairford RIAT 2007 Thunderbirds 5

Hi,

Nice pictures. Please excuse my ignorance, but what is
"RIAT"? I assume Fairford is the city or location for the
airshow, but I'm not up on the acronyms. Thanks.

RIAT stands for "Royal International Air Tattoo" :

Wow! I'd have never guessed that one! Thanks. So, then I assume
that the Thunderbirds had come to Canada or the UK for this airshow
which would explain the Royal Air Force helicopters.
