Blue Impulse, the flight unit of the Air Self-Defense Force Matsushima Air Base in Higashi Matsushima City, Miyagi Prefecture, conducted its first flight training.
Blue Impulse, which specializes in aerobatic flight, conducted its first training on the 5th.
Pilots and maintenance personnel carefully inspected the "T-4" model airplane.
After that, five aircraft entered the runway and took off one by one toward the vicinity of Mt. Kinka in Ishinomaki City.
The five aircraft were trained to fly in a platoon, to the back, and to rotate 360 degrees.
A man in his 50s who came from Ishinomaki City to see the training said, "I come every year, but I was impressed by the flight technology that is not disturbed. I think that it is a symbol of reconstruction, so I am looking forward to this activity. That's it. "
