Hyakuri Air Base

Location: Hyakuri (RJAH), Japan




Hyakuri Air Base, 85km (53miles), North East of Tokyo, Japan, is popular with aviation photographers the world over due to the fact that Phantoms operate from the base, its proximity to Tokyo also helps, while the famous "towers" alongside the taxiway complete the package.

IrishAirPics were in Japan on holidays and it would have been rude not to pay a visit to this popular base to see the Phabulous Phantoms in action.

A special word of thanks has to go to Koji Nakano - strix-photography.com/ for helping us to gain access to the towers and for keeping us company while were there.
