Italian Tornado for Cosford show

The flying display line-up for the RAF Cosford Air Show received another exciting  boost this week, with the news that the Italian Air Force will be sending a Tornado to perform on Sunday 11th June.

It is hoped that the jet used for the flying display will be adorned in a special paint scheme, unveiled earlier this year in Italy, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the 311° Gruppo.

The Italian Air Force will also be sending a C-27J Spartan, a tactical transport aircraft, for static display at the show.

The RAF Cosford Air Show is an advanced ticket only event, for more details see www.cosfordairshow.co.uk
