Thankyou for sharing this video. I was there with my father right on the crowd line at display centre and watched this arrival. Brings back many memories of the 90's IAT's, its never been the same since (only missed 2 air tattoo's since 1987). Its a shame Concorde is no longer with us. Also glad you captured that DC-4 which taxies in at the end. The pilot used to get airborne by raising the landing gear!
When I was a kid age 11 we used to drive off to Fairford in an open top Triumph Herald Covertible and time it just right to travel under this amazing plane. The sound was awesome,...shook every bone in yer body :)

I did exactly the same route to RIAT in 2003 and 2004 on the 747. G-CIVX & G-BNLL. A short but great flight!
