BELGIAN AIR FORCE DAYS - THUNDER TIGERS, 31 Squadron

Описание: The Thunder Tigers is a display of four operational F-16 pilots of the 31 “Tiger” Squadron, based in Kleine-Brogel. The team is led by pilot “Tobi”, and they showed the capabilities of the F-16AM during the Belgian Air Force Days. During a ten minute demo, consisting of different formation, passes, breaks and high-G manoeuvres, they will show the public the true capabilities of the “Mighty Viper”. For the last time ever, they will perform their demo using their beloved “X-Tiger”, a jet which received a special paint in honour of the NATO Tiger Meet. Interesting to know, is that these pilots are operational pilots, training day-to-day to acquire and maintain different currencies and qualifications in order to be ready when the Belgian F-16s are deployed abroad. They aren’t full-time demonstration pilots, but for the Belgian Air Force Days they made an exception to show the F-16 to the general public! The FA-95 recieved a shower from the fire brigade during the Spotter Day as it was the last flight of this airframe. The aircraft reached its 8000 flight hours and is therefore at the end of its life time. The plane will be used as an instructional airframe at Kleine-brogel to train the next generation of technicians.
