As promised, I'll try post some other photos besides Atsugi ones... Here's a few from this years Iruma Air Show. Although the event has various equipment on display from various bases around Japan, only Iruma based units take part in the flying displays (apart from JASDF aerobatic team Blue Impulse). This year a new record was made, when approximately 280 000 people came to see the event.
