QUOTE(aztechx @ Mar 14 2015, 10:35 AM) Those are just flyby only @8am++ but still damn impressive to see those birds. At this moment still no rehearsal but based on previous LIMA it was usually done twice a day, once in the morning around 8am/9am and in the evening at 4pm/5pm. Sometimes it may start earlier than that. As for me,my house is very near to airport so no problem to start 'lepak' on the other side of the runway close to the airport staff quarter building once I heard those jets engine roaring.

QUOTE(aztechx @ Mar 14 2015, 11:52 AM) haha based on the schedule from the Air traffic controller, the rehearsals are heald at noon for the last 2-3 days. But have been getting info that they are up and flying since 9am. My flight in will be at 9am tomorrow. Doubt i got enough time to catch them. Want to make sure i have a rough idea on the formation so i can be more prepared on the actual opening day itself. I believe the flybys are meant for the opening. Air Traffic controller info is right, SU30-MKM just performed it stunt rehearsal just now exactly at 12:20PM. This time around the stunts are more impressive as the pilot performed those "double loops backflip" (i don't know the correct term) which is super awesome. Only saw those stunt on youtube only before thisPlanning to catch the opening from the lookout point and the next few days from the quarters area to get those take off shots. oh and by the way, got news that TNI-AU has got Su-35 ordered now. A whole squadron of 16 aircraft that is. Source Getting aggressive under widodo eh.. This post has been edited by die_257: Mar 14 2015, 01:15 PM |

Both pilots most probably survived as two parachutes were seen deployed. Got pictures of crash inside my hp but don't know how to put it here.
