Flagstaff Air Event 2023

Post by PaulBradley »

The annual Flagstaff Air Event took place this morning at the airport just down the road from me. Not an airshow, it is more a fly-in with some military participation. This year saw the first appearance at the event of the USAF F-35A, a pair from the 310th FS out of Luke AFB; a KC-135 all the way from Oklahoma; and a pair of US Marine Corps helos:

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

I understand a rich new seam of grey paint has recently been discovered, so no time soon….
