Re: Seoul Air Show 2009

No, Trent is correct (Trent, is that you MF?).

The ROKAF VIP types that you are talking about are not Andovers. They are HS-748s.

Re: Cheongju(RKTU/CJJ) 2009 MIL

There was a "rehearsal" on Thursday as well.

Got a much better view today though.

Re: Cheongju(RKTU/CJJ) 2009 MIL

Wow! Lucky you. :D

Were you taking photos as well or just recording numbers? Where did you stand to aviod the attentions of security?

The best I managed was watching the 60 A/C flypast at Seoul, looking directly into the sun and with smoke everywhere obscuring the jets. :(

Cheers,
Motty.

Daegu & Hyakuri questions.

G'day Guys, Well, in little over a week I'll be winging my way over to the lands of the Morning Calm (Korea) and the Rising Sun (Japan) for a air show and photography trip. I was wondering whether anyone might have some particular hints and tips for a couple of aspects of my trip? I'd be particularl...

Re: Japan Airshow Dates 2009

Once again Uni, thank you very much for your help.

No, I hadn't realised that the 3rd was a holiday.

I am flying from Korea to Japan on the 2nd so I won't be able to get to Iruma on the Monday to catch the arrivals.

Thank you again.

Cheers,
Motty.

Re: Hyakuri: Phantomville, Japan

That's fantastic, thank you very much.

Now I just have to hope that they will still be using the new runway when I get there.

Cheers,

Re: Hyakuri: Phantomville, Japan

Many thanks Stefan.

The second link (carpark) comes up as the entire United States though. Surely there's somewhere closer? :P

Re: Japan Airshow Dates 2009

Thank you very much once again Uni. Very helpful. Do you think there will be so many people at Iruma if it is on a weekday? Or are Iruma shows always on weekdays? I also remember on my last time in Japan (2007) that stepladders were prohibited from airshows (so I didn't take mine to the first show) ...

Re: Hyakuri: Phantomville, Japan

G'day Arnold, Lots of great shots there. Thank you for sharing. :bthumb: Could you describe how you got to your first point "near the checkpoint for runways 03"? Did you get there by car or did you walk some? I was there in 07 so I am roughly familiar with the area and I will be spending a...

Re: Japan Airshow Dates 2009

Thank you very much Uni. Is there a web page for the Iruma show which might tell what types will be there? Do you have any contacts who know about current spotting opportunities at Hyakuri? I was there in 2007 but the new runway wasn't built then. Is the fence still the same or is there a new fence?...
