31/8-1/9 2013 – Jesolo Beach

 

Weekend dedicated to flying on the beach of Jesolo for what has become a classic Italian summer Air Show.

This year there are also French neighbors with the Patrouille de France and Swiss with PC 7 Team while Hungary is represented by an aggressive JAS 39 Gripen. Of course, our Armed Forces got the lion's share of all the heavier metal in inventory, Tornado and Eurofighter in the lead.

But the biggest surprises were the M346 Master, finally back in flight after the recent accident where the 1st pre-series specimen and the General Atomic MQ were lost 9 Reaper, used in flight by the Air Force to shoot from above the crowded shore.

Il Master è stata presentato in una inedita “non-colorazione”, with the fuselage surfaces still primed, without paint. Probably it was wanted to show that the machine has no problems and is now mature e, to see how it flies, I would say that the result has been achieved in full.
As for the new drone arrived in the ranks of our Air Force, I would say it was a great surprise. See it fly over your head, with its big wings and in absolute silence, made quite an impression.

The 2 days, unfortunately, as far as I'm concerned, have been marred by constant camera malfunctions, which prevented me from documenting the event in the best possible way.

Per stavolta accontentatevi…
