RMAF 50th Anniversary - Subang Airbase Open Day

[Alan]

Had a early start yesterday and ended up with a load of crappy shots from Subang airbase.

1) Static Mig29

2) F/A 18 getting ready for take-off

3) This is what I should have brought - earplugs

4) Show started with paratroopers 'invading' the base

5) The paratroopers were then quickly air-lifted away, with their guns pointing out ready to fire.

i think the massive crowds restrict people to get a decent shot of the grounded plane. agree with noordin, #3 is the best compared to others.

18) I didn't get much of the Su-30, because by then I found that shots are pretty much run of the mill

19) This was shot through a chain link fence. Pity I cropped the nose.

20) The dark side did turn out with some pretty impressive fire power. I felt like such a whimp standing beside them

Thanks for the comments. It was first time experience for me.

Nice shots. I didn't know there was an open day at Subang. Dang!

By the way, #8 is not the MiG-29. It's the Su-30MKM.

Nice sky, did you shoot the morning or afternoon session?

1, 8, 10 and 18 are my favs.
