Fightertown Nyutabaru: Phantoms, Eagles and Agressors

Post by Iwan Bogels »

Hi everybody,

On Wednesday 24 October 2012 we continued our trip at Nyutabaru. This base must have been on top of everybody’s wish list for Japan. We arrived at about 07:30 hrs and within half an hour we had witnessed the take off of eight F-15’s and a T-4. That’s what I call a good start of the day !

The first wave flew from runway 28, allowing us to do some taxi shots (only possible in the early morning hours). Later during the morning they changed to runway 10. We witnessed several waves, including to sorties from fur Agressors each. Unfortunately we only had a few Phantoms, but plenty of Eagles and T-4’s.

All together we shot from four different positions, and this is a selection of the results.

Hope you like them,
Iwan
