Chilean Air Force 83rd Anniversary Flypast

Post by Shocman »

Hi everyone!!!
The last 21st March, was the 83rd Anniversary of Chilean Air Force. So as usual the celebration involved a Flypast, this time the opening formation was the T-35 Pillán, instead of Extra-300L from Halcones. It was very emotional occasion for their recently lost of two members of this aerobatic team.

The flypast
First airplanes were T-35 Pillán from Chilean Air Force Flying School (Escuela de Aviación)

The following aircraft were KC-135E and F-16MLU

The next formation were a pair of C-130 from Group 10

The last formation were Bell 412 and UH-1H from Group 9

An air force we don't see very often so these are most welcome. The 707 Condor is certainly a bit eye catching and would love to see it at a UK show. Thanks for sharing.
