| The second Open Day of the weekend was held at nearby Anápolis, the former home of the FAB Mirage fleet. After a few hours driving we arrived around noon, | |||
| and found the base packed with aircraft, which were participating in a FAB exercise called BVR/Sabre 2. | |||
| Beyond visual range combat was being practiced here for a few weeks; hence the large numbers of F-5s and A-29s. | |||
| We were happy to find a lot of Mirages were still present as well, albeit wfu (the four missing F-2000s were parked near the alert shelters and could not be seen). | |||
| Again, we had access to some areas sealed off for the general public, which produced the log above. | |||
