Thunder in my skies
There is a day/night military exercise happening in Darwin at the moment.

But you're not allowed to watch it. You didn't travel the minimum 5,000 miles required.

Some of the military jets are pretty cool when you can catch sight of them.

Indeed. I have never before seen Sukhois, I have seen some early generation MiGs. The Su-27 and Su-30s we have visiting at the moment are just that extra bit special.

Sadly not, only watching the takeoffs and recoveries.
One Hornet did a few turns and rolls over the harbour for the Thursday markets, but I count that as a demo, not a show.

An interesting thing today. Two Thai F-16s recovered extremely closely. I don't know what the issue was, but one landed while the other did a circuit, then landed.

Wonderful pictures, OF!!
Wish I could have been there watching the non-show and seen the two Sukhois! Looks like you had a great time.
