Hey!
I´ve been 2 times in Japan for spotting.
2010 i visit Gifu Airshow. The weather was bad, but the show was ok.

in 2012 i visit the Hyakuri Airbase, standing on a ladder next to fence. No Airshow. But it was so busy...F-15 and F-15 and small training aircrafts without a break for 8 hours!

Right now i´m in Australia. Maybe i will go to Hyakuri AFB Airshow, cause i love the Phantom...
