Hey guys down here at Avalon, we had 1x 2FTS PC-9, a RAAF C-17 land and depart and 2x F-16's and 2x F-22's from Missawa and Kadena respectively. Followed by a Kadena based KC-135.

The F-22's are from Langley AFB Virginia, one had an electrical fault with only 10 mins of fuel remaining so made an emergency call up, Callsigns for F-22's were Raptors 01 and 02.

The USAF C-17 and B-52 arrive Sunday Arvo around 6:00, the JASDF KC-767 has been delayed till Monday night. Don't like it when there's delays that usually means they decided not to come ...

Just witnessed the best Display ever! F-22 was up for over 20 mins, and it was already well worth the trip down

Hi All,

Is the JASDF a B767-200 or a 300ER?

There is A B767-200 Currently South of Guam (on Planefinder) ex Japan -
Flight No / Call Sign LAB601.
