This year, too, I made an expedition to the air festival at Gifu Air Base!😎

F-2A Air Development and Test Wing(ADTW) prototype first flight "63-8501". It made its first flight in January 1995 as the prototype XF-2A "63-0001". After testing at the Technical Research Division, it was transferred to the ADTW in 1997 and became "63-8501".

今年も岐阜基地の航空祭に遠征してきました！😎

Swedish Air force J 29 Tunnan at Aeroseum aviation museum, Göteborg, Sweden

We took a tour of the USS Yorktown in Charleston. The ship was quite a site to see. I left wondering what it must have been like to be aboard when under attack. The fear must have been intense. I also thought about us as people, devoting so much energy and effort to find new ways to kill one another. It worrries me at times.

In addition to the CFTs and 600gal tanks, note the pair of GBU-24s slung under the wings.

On the grounds of Independence Palace in Ho Chi Minh City, a family poses in front of an American-made F5E fighter used by the South Vietnamese Air Force during the Vietnam War. (They were actually posing for another photographer -- I just happened to be taking a photo at the same time and they moved into my shot...)

Mach loop April 2016

I'm not usually into fighters, however this was unusual enough for me to include it here.

I was pottering on the laptop in my hotel room quite early in the morning when I heard a very loud noise at Palma Airport, loud enough to rattle my windows.

I grabbed my camera and rushed out onto the balcony, By which time this was already a fast receding dot in the distance, so it was a 'shot to nothing'.

Apparently it was a fuel stop at Palma on it's way home to Poland after appearing at the Motril Air Show, Granada, Spain.

The air intake of the MIG-15, the classic "enemy" of the F-86. These early jet fighters are interesting and yet, now, amazingly old! Before the needle-nosed supersonic jets, these craft battled for air supremacy...

I find it interesting how photos of classic MIG aircraft are very popular now.

Today's edition of Tail Tuesday features a F-16 belonging to the 180th Fighter Wing in Ohio. This picture was taken during the 2018 Fargo AirSho.
