	FlightSim.Com Review: RAF Fairford
		Greenham Common was less than ideal as a venue as it was full of cruise missiles and Fairford's facilities, which included the ability to stage a static display a couple of miles long, must have looked very appealing.
		The RIAT is held every year and qualifies as one of the biggest airshows in Europe, so there is always plenty of interest and visitors are guaranteed a viewing of a wide range of the most modern military aircraft.
		Fairford easily qualifies for an Armchair Aviator Award - there is no doubt that it does place demands on processor power, but given its massive scope, RIAT must be one of the most frame rate efficient addons of its kind I have come across.

		All the people who have already bought RIAT Fairford will be invited to, of course free of charge, download the necessary files to upgrade their versions to 1.1.
		Fairford is a brilliant product and while I havn't had the best frame rates, they havn't been too bad either (around 13 - 16 fps).

	Profile #05 - Operation Noble Anvil - B-52 & B-1's @ RAF Fairford
		of events at RAF Fairford between February and June 1999, where the 2nd Air Expeditionary Group was formed with aircraft from CONUS based 8th Air Force units to conduct strike missions as part of ‘Operation Noble Anvil’, the USAF part of ‘Operation Allied Force’.
		Mission launches throughout the first week at Fairford were covered by multiple TV crews, and were no doubt broadcast around the world.

	RAF Fairford
		The approach to Fairford would not be easy for the crew as in recent years launches have tended to occur when its dark in the UK.
		The runway requirements for an aborted landing are estimated to be around 9000 feet but this assumes the normal braking systems still function and there are reasonable winds in a favourable direction.
		With Fairford's runway at 10,000 feet the shuttle would need to touchdown in the runway overrun to have any chance of stopping on tarmac rather than in the grass and with an approach speed of 250+ knots they'd have to hope their brakes and braking chute were still in perfect condition.

	Guardian \| Protesters were held unlawfully, court rules
		Anti-war protesters are to claim thousands of pounds in damages after a high court ruling yesterday that the Gloucestershire police unlawfully detained them on their way to a demonstration at RAF Fairford.
		But there was disappointment that the judges also ruled that the police acted within their powers when they prevented the demonstrators reaching the airfield in Gloucestershire to protest against the war with Iraq.
		Lord Justice May and Mr Justice Harrison agreed that, even though their subsequent detention was unlawful, the police had been entitled to stop them reaching Fairford, because of fears of a breach of the peace.

	Guardian Unlimited Politics \| Special Reports \| Trial of Fairford Five will put pressure on Goldsmith
		Five peace activists charged with criminal damage at RAF Fairford are pleading - like Katharine Gun, the former GCHQ translator whose prosecution under the Official Secrets Act for leaking a memo was thrown out last week - that they acted to prevent an illegal war.
		If Mr Justice Grigson agrees that they can invoke the two defences of necessity and prevention of crime, Tony Blair could face the embarrassing prospect of an ordinary jury of 12 citizens deciding whether or not the defendants had reasonable grounds for believing that the war was legal under international law.
		Hugo Charlton, a barrister representing Dr Jones and Mr Richards, said the defendants in the case would be seeking disclosure of the attorney general's original advice.
