On with the show: page 4, starting
with a hughe one: The KC-135-R as You like it to see... |

the platform |

T-37C (65-12-804) where you both can sit in front of the plane... |
.JPG) |
... specially for training purposes
a good situation |

... and as stated before, Turkish
|

The cockpit is always a good situation to
impress your girlfriend, or just to make a nice picture for the homefront ! |

Cessna T-41D Mescalero is the next plane
in education after the 'Glider period'. Right: SF-260 D Siai Marchetti |

Have a future, but cherish your
past ! Looking over Izmir AFB this old Starfighter... |
.JPG) |
... as well as these two F-5 'Freedom
Fighters' |

Statue of a famous airman in front
of the Izmir base |
.JPG) |
Inside the base the temperature
rose, and often people found a place in the shadow for a moment |
.JPG) |
Absolute highlights of amongst the
participants was the Pakistan Airforce !! What a sight to see them come in ! |
.JPG) |
Pakistani F-16A from 11(OCU) Sqn. |
.JPG) |
Pakistani JF-17 'Thunder' in a
spectacular take-off during the showdays ! |
.JPG) |
The JF-17 is a
joint-Chinese-Pakistani project , it's a multi-role light weight fighter... |
.JPG) |
...it's equipped with modern
electronics, and can be placed in the category of French Mirage fighters |
.JPG) |
Have a good look, you won't see them
flying live that easily ! |
.jpg) |
Here our Slovak friends (!) we flew this
type of Antonov-26 to make air-to-air pictures (elsewhere on this site) |
.jpg) |
Nice to have a renewed welcome with
this crew and their base-commander here in Izmir ! |
.JPG) |
Also participating (where don't they):
Belgian Airforce F-16 MLU Fighting Falcons |
.JPG) |
..., and not to forget our own
Royal Netherlands Airforce contribution from Leeuwarden Airforce base |
.JPG) |
Ok, ok, we can discuss who has the best
color-outfit, this black-blue Belgian F-16, or the Dutch black-orange one
:-) |
.JPG) |
From the F-16 over to a newer generation:
The Typhoon, or Eurofighter from Italy. |
.JPG) |
Shown here the EF2000 from 311 Gruppo RSV |
.JPG) |
... and his older brither the AMX ACOL
from 13 Gruppo. |
.jpg) |
Hey: 'Happy Catering !' Boy did we
appreciate you being here ! Water and more water was the key to survive this
heat |
.jpg) |
Here it still was quit, later on the day
the hangar was filled up with hungry and thirsty people... |
.JPG) |
Another Italian participant for the
transport tasks overhere at Izmir: C-27J |
.jpg) |
The Spartan C-27J is developed by Alenia
Tactical Transport Systems, here to support the Frecce Tricolore |
.JPG) |
rather rare and unexpected: A Danish
Hercules, probably it was hired within Nato partners |
.JPG) |
... a few more pic's from the
landing-zone position... |
.JPG) |
... ending up with this CASA CN235M-100
example that passed our lenses. |

Despite of limited flying action we offer
you some helicopter images: |
.JPG) |
Eurocopter AS532-AL Cougar... |
.JPG) |
... and in a closer look... |
.JPG) |
... the UH-1 'Huey' of 'iroquois',
work-horse of the TuAF, and in many other Airforces |
.JPG) |
The Cougare and the Huey are mostly used
for transport and humanitairian flights, but can be armed as well... |
.JPG) |
... the Coastguard bell-412EP once again... |
.JPG) |
...a tip for any other coming event would
be to hoover the helicopters more in front of public... |
.JPG) |
... specially frontal and near the crowds
is so much 'making nice pictures'... |
.jpg) |
... detail of hardpoints on this S-70B
Blackhawk |
.JPG) |
A 'newer generation' compared to the
AH-64 Apache is this AH-1-P Cobra |
.jpg) |
... and these hardpoints show that the
cobra is not defenceless as well. |
.JPG) |
Few details, the tower is hidden between
some trees, 'unaccessable' during the showdays, understandable ! |
