  1. is he retiring from TUDM or only as a demo pilot?mind sharing the contents of the interview?Giro seems to be a very decent guy although i only had a few words with him.. :)

     

    He's leaving the squadron to move up his career path. Although he did say he wishes to keep flying past the retirement age.


  2. This LIMA is Giro's last appearance as the Su-30 demo pilot. I had the honor of interviewing him before the show ended. He shared with me his childhood dream of becoming a pilot, his flying experiences and his love for Malaysia. Hopefully I can find a magazine willing to publish his story.


  3. Found from Twitter, USAF Thunderbird F16 parked next to RMAF SU30MKM at RMAF Subang.

    I took that pic :rolleyes: It was taken on Friday, on the actual day they changed it to the F-16D and the area was cleared of support equipment. But the weather wasn't as good. I got some other spectacular shots as well. Like the Su-30 making a sharp right turn after take-off and it looks like its gonna attack the F-16s sitting on the ramp. They should be published soon in an aviation magazine. I'll scan and post them if anyone's interested.

    USS Essex is currently in Thailand for Exercise Cobra Gold, I requested to visit the ship when it pulls into port but they suggested that I come aboard the ship to look at their flying ops. While the initial plan was to fly us in via helo thru Utapao, that plan was shot down and we went aboard using a LCAC instead. After leaving the ship, we had a chance to visit VMA-211 at Utapao and managed to catch a RTN S-2 and A-7 there as well.
