Default Twin Ring Motegi Airshow, Japan

Here I am packing anything I can think of to bring with me on my trip to Japan (except food which I should do ) and thought I'd share a bit of it with you. This will be short as I still have to finish getting ready for my 6:40am flight, and it's 3:15am and still much to do.

Last year I was invited to put on an Airshow at the Twin Ring (same place where the full-scale guys flew a few years back) and I was all for it. Well, I must have done an ok job at it as I was invited back again this year . I don't think I will internet access, or time, while I'm there, but when I return I'll post a bunch of pics from the trip.

http://www.twinring.jp/english/ the site where this takes place this weekend.

Here's a few pics from last year...
Planes, Helis, Jets... even fast cars...

I guess I'll have to bring the beef. I know that the sushi will go uneaten!!! He'll be flying the torquise Kiwi scheme 260. I can't wait for november for the Haute Voltige airshow.

Japan3D.

My understanding is Jason had better bring the check book if he wants beef anyway. A good old New York tenderloin is not exactly what you would call an economically viable way to eat in down town Tokyo.

He better learn to like Sushi and Miso soups really fast,

Actually the prices have come down. I can bring some beef from the commissary on base. He wouldn't eat nothing last year unless it came from a cow!!

dont bother with the fine dining when it comes to Jason. Get some McDonalds, Wendy's or KFC and he will be happy. I have only had to order for him a couple hundred times so I dont even have to ask him what he wants anymore. If you ever thought someone was picky about food you havent seen anything until you have been around Jason.
