Sorry,I explained wrongly: I think it wasn't an 'official' air force demo team,(as the Usaf west coast F-15 demo team),but a demo specially performed by the base...however thisi's the indicted video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooz9gA-vhWMLe Addeur noir wrote:Unless things have changed since the last Japanese show I visited(Naha last year),there are no demonstration teams other than the Blue Impulse.
The the based F-15s(if a F-15 base) would cover that.Same with F-2s or F-4s.kenshiro1978 wrote:Sorry,I explained wrongly: I think it wasn't an 'official' air force demo team,(as the Usaf west coast F-15 demo team),but a demo specially performed by the base...however thisi's the indicted video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooz9gA-vhWMLe Addeur noir wrote:Unless things have changed since the last Japanese show I visited(Naha last year),there are no demonstration teams other than the Blue Impulse.
Many Thanks for the infos about times for flight and static display,(I hope it would be fast move from the capital to that base!) However Hyakuri is the home of the 7 wing 305th F-15 squadron so as you said before it very probably will have a flight exhibition and for that reason i decided for Hyakuri instead of Iruma and Hamamatsu... What you think about the Nagoya international air expo,on the exhibitor list I read there will be some JASDF hardware but nothing more precise about the types: http://www.japanaerospace.jp/english/Le Addeur noir wrote:The the based F-15s(if a F-15 base) would cover that.Same with F-2s or F-4s.kenshiro1978 wrote:Sorry,I explained wrongly: I think it wasn't an 'official' air force demo team,(as the Usaf west coast F-15 demo team),but a demo specially performed by the base...however thisi's the indicted video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ooz9gA-vhWMLe Addeur noir wrote:Unless things have changed since the last Japanese show I visited(Naha last year),there are no demonstration teams other than the Blue Impulse.
You don't tend to see F-15s from other bases at Japanese shows.
The JASDF do usually perforn good flying displays at their shows.
For those who have not been to a Jalanese show before,be there early,it's all over by 15.00.Visiting airplanes are being removed from static from 12.00 onwards and these depart home from early afternoon.
