For day nine of the trip we returned to Honshu, to the north east of Tokyo and the ever popular base of Hyakuri.

Hyakuri - 19th April 2012
Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |

LOL. Missed you by that much. We were there just one week before.

Looks like you had better weather than us though (it was FREEZING on our day) and you caught two of the RF-4EJ Kais. Well done.
Cheers,
Motty.

D'oh!! I misread the dates on my photos.
Well, it was late (that's my defence and I'm relying on it ).
Good to meet you again (online). I wish I'd known who you were at the time. I've seen your stuff on the net for many years and it would have been great to know I was meeting you in person. My fault for being shy.
Thanks again for the heat packets too. Needed them a lot!
Again, nice shots. You still had better weather the day before.
Cheers,
Motty.
