The Royal International Air Tattoo (RIAT) is the world's largest military air show, held annually over the third weekend in July, usually at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, England in support of The Royal Air Force Charitable Trust. The show typically attracts a total of 180,000 to 185,000 spectators over the weekend.
The Red Arrows will be doing a fly-by every day for their last UK show of 2019. A British Airways Boeing 747, painted in its iconic British Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) livery, will perform a dramatic flypast with the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team on Saturday.
This year features more than 30 air arms from over 20 different nations, which means the Air Tattoo is the best place to see military aircraft on display to the public. Confirmed aircraft includes two Spanish Navy Harriers, the Ukrainian Su-27, US Air Force F-16 Viper Demo Team, Frecce Tricolori, and RAF F-35B Lightning.
Astronaut Major Tim Peake will be at the airshow on Friday in the Techno Zone as part of this year's Air and Space theme to inspire the next generation of the air force and space industry.
He will be interviewed by Carol Vorderman in the Bader Marquee at 9.30am. The Techno Zone will have an array of space-themed displays and attractions throughout the weekend

With the faint sound of “Sweet Georgia Brown” playing in the background, Two members of the Harlem Globetrotters stopped by Naval Support Activity Bethesda (NSAB), home to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, on Feb. 12 to spread some cheer and share a little bit of their basketball prowess with patients, their families, and staff on base. Harlem Globetrotters Justin “X-Over” Tompkins and Joey “Hot Rod” De La Rosa signed autographs, gave out souvenirs, and showed off their ballhandling skills to those who came by Building 62’s Warrior Cafe on NSAB/Walter Reed to see them.
Tompkins, a 4’ 6” guard who often sports a red, white and blue headband, is the second-shortest player in Globetrotter history (the shortest is his 4’ 5” older brother and current Globetrotter Jahmani “Hot Shot” Swans¬on). A native of New York where he learned his streetball skills, X-Over signed red, white and blue headbands, similar to the one he wears during games, for his fans at Walter Reed while thanking them for their service and sacrifices, as did the 7’ 1” De La Rosa.
A Bronx native, De La Rosa attended St. John’s University before being selected as a Globetrotter. He helped those who came out to see him and X-Over, spin a basketball on their fingers and do other skills for which the Globetrotters are globally noted.
Those who attended the Globetrotters’ visit to NSAB/Walter Reed expressed their appreciation to them for making a stop on base, which was made possible with assistance from Operation Homefront.
NSAB Commanding Officer, Navy Capt. Alan Christian, and Walter Reed Chief of Staff Navy Capt. (Dr.) Kelly Elmore attended the event to welcome the Globetrotters to the base and medical center.

Piedras Blancas Light Station is located at Point Piedras Blancas, about 5.5 miles west by northwest of San Simeon, California. The first-order Fresnel lens at Piedras Blancas was first illuminated on February 15, 1875. The Piedras Blancas lighthouse was originally 100 feet high to the top of the ventilator ball. Earthquakes over the years damaged the structure. On December 31, 1948, final damage from an earthquake centered 6 miles off the point led to the decision to remove the upper three floors: the fourth landing, watch room, and lantern. Missing the beautiful ornate lantern, the truncated lighthouse now stands about 70 feet tall. The lens was moved and is on display in the nearby community of Cambria. The area is a Historic Park and Wildlife Refuge.
Students at campuses across the country showed their support for the Virginia Tech community in the wake of the tragedy.
