Cheongju AB, S Korea 9.12.16 -a bit for everyone.

Post by TAFFEVANS » Sun Dec 11, 2016 7:26 am

Last one! Popped down on a Friday morning for all of 3hrs. This is 2:30hrs from Incheon but worth the visit with a bit for everyone. It is a large Fast Jet and Roatary Base with a Regional Airport Terminal also for the 'civvies' mainly '737's from Korean/Jin/Jeju Airlines. The weather was grey & overcast to start with the sun trying it's best later. In the 3hrs I was there flying were 5xF-4, 7xKF-16, 2xF15, 2xT-50 and a Casa with a handful of rotary types. I concentrated on the fast Jets so the rotary photos are at the limit of the lens. Now, if only the sun had come out for the F-4's!

Phantastic stuff, Taff, and the F-5's etc as well :thumb:
Chuffed you got down to the Rhino base this time. I'm sure you are glad you did now. Must get myself there...

If I'm not mistaken the 111 FS 16s are from Kunsan. As when I was at the Kun they flew F-5s.

Great shots
