Some snapshots from this year's Athens Flying Week airshow held at Tanagra AB this September. The display of the EdA EF-18AM was the highlight of this year's airshow! For me, it was the most static aerial display I've ever seen... Enjoy! 1. Vador with his dark Falcon zooming up! https://farm5.static...

First of all let me say that fellows here on the forum having attended the event in the past will most certainly have more conclusive answers to your questions. The general principle is that all applications to attend Iniochos Spotters' Day are going through exclusively through Hellenic Air Force HQ...

Awesome sets of pictures Savvas ! Did you have any special accreditation or just the spotter one ? There is just one day where spotters are allowed isn't it ? Sorry for the questions but I would like to go to the 2019 event to get the mighty F4 Thank you, Anthony Just the spotter accreditation. Nor...

If not?...then I would still be there!:

Well, unfortunately I had to leave before the late evening wave...

With so much activity, it seems this year's Iniochos INVITEX was the fullest, until the next one! First of all, let me say that this post isn't complete yet. It misses RAF EF2000 FGR.4s and most of ITAF Tornadoes. I am still processing these photos... Nevertheless, here is part of the footage!... Fi...

Wonderful set Mark! If only all aircraft have banked to the tower side on takeoff during the early afternoon wave...

These are the newest Blk52M from 116CW, Araxos AB. They haven't had the time yet to get dirty... the Greek way!!

HAF aircrafts will be cleaned if only prime paint is surfaced! Or if they are through general overhaul maintenance and they get repainted.

Thank you guys!

Keeping up with the tradition, here are some shots from last year's FWS (SOT) held (as always) at 117CW, Andravida AB. 1. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4724/39675033081_68da1abfed_b.jpg It's a Falcon Gathering by Savvas Savvaidis , on Flickr 2.

Wonderful set Mark and very good post-processing!

An aspect of HAF not usually seen!

Well captured!

PS: if only I knew who would attend the meeting, I could have met you in person!

Thank you guys for all of your comments!

A couple of months before the official HAF RF-4E retirement and its host squadron's 348TRS "Eyes" decommissioning, I had the unique opportunity to capture the legendary Greek Recce Phantoms in one of their phinal low level flying sorties. The sight of low flying Greek recce rhinos was seco...

There was no clearance to shoot the Egyptian F-16s or the personnel at the time the visit took place.

Nonetheless, they were a beautiful sight!

Savvas, With the retirement of the RF-4E this year do you know of any plans to offer a farewell photoday at Andravida ? Any idea of the final retirement date for the rest of the Greek Phantoms ? regards Paul Good day Paul! The retirement day of the RF-4E is set on May 5th 2017. AFAIK, there will be...

Some photos from the final phase of the Hellenic Air Force FWS (SOT - Scholeio Oplon Taktikis) 2016 training course.
