1. Yes 2. Yes, but can be tricky (typically the gates open say 07:30, display starts 09:30 and finished by noon, and perhaps only the Blue Impulse display during the afternoon). All over by 3pm usually, with the visitors departures starting immediately the show ends. 3. Saturday could be a cut down ...

Edit: or is it the light on 434?

Hans.

'434 - it's just the light effect as the sun was dropping in and out of cloud as it set.

LOL. Missed you by that much. We were there just one week before. http://forum.scramble.nl/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=87194&p=591929#p591929 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. :bthumb: Cheers, Motty. Are ...

Yes it was left over snow and rather cold with it...

The C-130 pics are from the viewing gallery on the shopping mall. In 35mm focal lengths, for a C-130 side on, you are talking 400+ on the runway and 500+ on the far side taxiway. Like at at the typical airport viewing gallery, it is covered in a grill fence with a photo gap every so often. But these...

Day two of the trip was around the Nagoya area.

Day ten, our last day was back to Hyakuri for the morning. Headed off at lunchtime to spend the afternoon at JGSDF Utsunomiya. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-20/LJ8V124582.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-20/7DA029699.jpg http:/...

For day nine of the trip we returned to Honshu, to the north east of Tokyo and the ever popular base of Hyakuri. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-19/7DA026512.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-19/7DA026916.jpg http://i14.photobucke...

Had headed to the north island of Hokkaido and Chitose for the next three days of the trip. Unfortunately the weather did not play ball. 16th April - Quite a lot of activity from the two F-15 squadrons, but not exactly favourable conditions. As it turned this was best day of the three. http://i14.ph...

Fourth day of a trip to Japan in April, spent a very nice day at Akeno. About perfect weather and plenty of action. http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-12/IMG_0432.jpg http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a338/p6025/Japan%202012/2012-04-12/IMG_1100.jpg http://i14.photobuck...

There was no airshow at Hyakuri in 2011 because of the offical air force review - held in October (every third year) at Hyakuri.
