Japan Temporarily Grounds F-15


Recommended Posts

Thankfully, this is a week AFTER I got to fly HABFM with JASDF Eagles from Chitose.

(...and yes, I was 2 for 2 and got some pretty sweet HUD footage of an Eagle under my BATR. And no, I didn't BINGO-out first...heh.)

In all seriousness, this has been a tough week for fighter aviation. USAF Viper at Nellis and a JASDF Eagle...both morts. Sucks.

I just watched 6 fly up initial at Eielson...

They do 6 ship up initial?

Maybe it's just Eielson...the rwy is long enough they can all break before the end.

Fingertip as in the UPT formation training exercise or fingertip like the formation commonly known as close?

Holy Crap...Eagle guys flying near each other. When did that start. I thought they were all "Lone Wolf McQuade" types bent on single ship employment glory.

I think it started at Kadena...

It didn't start or end at Kadena. That was just where it was first leaked.
