Merdeka Parade

Recommended Posts

"This year, the RMAF will showcase all the fighter aircraft we have flown since 1955 up to our latest acquisitions — the Sukhois,"

 

That would be very interesting (all the fighter aircraft): hope to see a lot of pictures here, guys :pardon:

Sorry to intrude and reawaken an old thread but must write to clarify certain things... Tried to refrain from commenting but too strong is the urge for me to say something... so here goes

 

The pilots flying the formation and display of Su-30MKM during Merdeka Day 2007 for our 50th independence celebrations are all Malaysian pilots. Agreed that there were russian instructors onboard but they are there to oversee the pilot training as after the flypast the Su-30MKM proceeded to RMAF Training Area to continue with their training sorties before recovering to home base.

 

Be proud of our pilots please, we are just as capable if not better than the mat sallehs....

 

Just my 2 cents... sorry if I m overly sensitive...

 

PS. I'm new here...
