One could say that ‘Departures Day’ at RIAT is, in itself, its very own airshow. There’s no better way of seeing such a variety of different military aircraft departing all in the space of about 9 hours.

This video features all of the fast jet departures from the show, many of which are F-16s - given that one of the themes for RIAT 2024 was the 50th anniversary since the first flight of the type - but there were plenty of other examples too including the AV-8B Harrier, Panavia Tornado and F-4E Phantom II.
