Thanks to Victor's generous offer of an exclusive ticket, I managed to go to this event early yesterday.
Was busy with an overseas guest after, and didn't have time to go through all the pix, select, edit, upload and post, so here's just a few to share:
A wide vista of endless tarmac and an impressive exhibition building greets visitors upon entrance of the Changi Exhibition Center
Coming up closer, the throngs of dedicated personnell from the various branches of the SAF can be seen as a cohesive force of co-ordinated effort. In virtually non-military garb, many of the young and good looking personnel resemble junior college students
A BIG Salute greets guests as they make their way into the open exhibition area
Even the Apache with the Long Bow radar was in attendance to cast an impressive air to the preview
Happy families and even couples suffering from Valentine's Day hangover were to be seen at the sprawling grounds
As the weather was not very co-operative with low cloud cover, annoucements that a last-minute change of strategy caused some delays making the crowds to look all over the skies anxiously, and in the distance, swooping in with silent deadliness, was the prelude to the esteemed Black Knights - all six of these precision pilots were creating a formation never seen at any airshow.
Alas, after only a slight delay, the Black Knights made their appearance in precision formation
Apart from the various 6 member formation, twin aerobatics got the crowd ooh-ing and ahh-ing
But sometimes, it's even more impressive to be on your own
And just when everyone thought that the show was over, the BIG GUN OF THE DAY was
finally revealled...
