These were parked near the main entrance before their hangars.
This turned out to be the wonderfull event. The weather was excellent with blue skies and all trees in nice autumn colours. Pictures can be seen the photoforum. The opening flypast was difficult to read off because it went straight over our head. Any corrections/additions are more than welcome.

Thanks for the updates Patrick!

F-4E 80-728 152 FS 153 FS right?

You are correct.

Black Eagles

They passed us from left to right, so no serials visible from our position.

02-257 AS532 which you already mentioned as "Flying" was accompanied by another black AS532 which was parked a little bit further (and unidentified). Both were visitors on 25-10

I think the AS332 are based at Cheongju with 233 CSRS or do they belong to the VIP sqn at Seongnam?

Must be VIP if you ask me. One of them delivered persons that were transferred into a luxery car which we weren't allowed to photograph.

Special VIP most likely.They should and most likely are based at Cheongju.

02-257 and 02-258(quite possibly the only 2 in service) were seen earlier in the week.

On the 25th October I visited the west parking lot (area 1 on the base maps)during the afternoon.Here's what I noted there,

Hanagar

04-003 HH-32A 235 SRS 6 S&RG
01-871 HH-60P 233 SCRS 6 S&RG

Hangar

0.-00. HH-32A 235 SRS 6 S&RG

Preserved in this area

30505 Bell 212
63-560 UH-1B 63-8560
66-870 T-37C 66-0870 c/n 40957

Stored on far side

60-382 F-4E
70-347 F-4E
80-514 F-4E

80-431 F-4E
80-441 F-4E
82-534 F-4E
D7 F-4E
D F-86
D F-86

In addition 3x HH-32A and 2x UH-60P were in open ended shelters as you drove in.It was not possible to stop or return to this area on foot,so these went unread.

The preserved Bell 212 was in a restricted area,but visible from the sidewalk outside the base.

The 2 hangars checked were adjacant to the preserved UH-1B.It was not possible to identify all 5 helicopters in the second hangar.

The serials for the WFU F-4Es come from someone who visited this area earlier in the week.A preserved F-4E is in this area,but only the tip of the tail of this was visible from this parking lot and it is not listed as seen.

Any advances on the unidentified helicopters in this area?.

[Le Addeur noir]

I am informed by a very reliable source that the second F-16 in the second flying display was 19th FA KC-16C 92-012.

The 2 KO-1s in this small display were 06-008 and 06-013.

Thx! Any luck on those CN235's and C-130's which arrived on Friday morning?
