I have to get there myself too. What a varied selection of aircraft the JASDF have but isnt that blue thunder in red and white? and i love the amphibian and the P1, which looks a heck of a lot better platform than the Poseidon. Thank you for sharing such a great selection.
Life's a piece of S*** if you look at it!

The Red & white Heli is an Kawasaki OH1 light scout attack, the example being one prototypes I believe seen at Akeno, where I have to admit I was surprised at just how close we could get to hovering Heli's

Paul, Great selection and you are processing more quickly than I am. Missed you on the flight back and had to rush to get my connection. Thanks for the company and a fantastic aviation trip (a/c numbers, variety, colours and access!!). Hopefully catch up next year. :clap:

Pete sorry I missed you as you rushed off for your BHX flight connection, I certainly hope to bump into you again next year. looking forward to seeing some of your humble efforts on this forum perhaps , I quickly processed some of the stand out stuff for this forum from the mountain of images I took I still have lots more to work through to edit them properly
