Sadly, the ongoing operations from RAF Fairford have led to the cancellation of the 2026 Royal International Air Tattoo. Flightline UK is extremely sorry to hear this news and sends best wishes to all at Royal Air Force Charitable Trusts who work so hard to bring the Air Tattoo to life each year. We are sure they will be back bigger and stronger in 2027. The full statement reads:#<\/p>\n
