Forum rules
ImageThis 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.

Fun in Japan again. Hyakuri & Phantoms!

Post by Motty »

G'day All,

This time it the JASDF base at Hyakuri. The weather wasn't great (and it was freezing!) but there were F-4s to be seen.

Oh, and they fly some other things there too.

If you were allowed to build an airbase to your own spotter's specifications, and if you could put some aircraft on it that you absolute love, then the endresult would be THIS VERY airbase.....what a dream. Would love to go there sometime!

Great set of pics!
