Where? NAS Miramar, USA
When? 19-20/10/2002

The Miramar Airshow is the largest airshow in the world and the performing aircraft did range from civilian aerial aerobatics to the Marine Air Ground Task Force demonstration and the famous Blue Angels.
The 2002 show theme was 'A Salute to the Flying Leathernecks' in honor of the Marine aviators.

Since 1994 Miramar is an Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS), the Marine Corps' premier air station and home to the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing. But nonetheless the name is still associated with 'Fightertown U.S.A.' coming from the days when the base still was a Naval Air Station (NAS Miramar). Due to that change the Navy F-14s have nowadays unfortunately disappeard and have mainly been replaced by Marines F/A-18s.

A thick layer of haze above Seoul Airport in Seongnam, South Korea, made things look rather fuzzy for this year’s edition of ADEX 2015 (Seoul International Aerospace & Defense Exhibition). Flying displays for the official inauguration ceremony in the air had to be cancelled, and on the ground the prospects for some of South Korea’s ambitous military prospects were set straight.
