Asian Aerospace 2006

Just came back from Asian Aerospace 2006. Yep, "Peakoiler Lowem visits Air Show", with wife and elder kid. Here we are in front of the "First to Fly" SIA Airbus A380 :

Here's the complete Airbus A380 :

The KC-135 tanker aircraft - from the U.S. air base in Japan, according to the "boom operator" running his little trinket stall :

And the F-15E Strike Eagle :

Dozens more photos, still sorting through them. The resizing is easy, it's the panoramic views that can get a little tricky. But first, to rest. Not so young as back in 1992-96, when I visited the show for the entire day from opening time at 9.30 am to closing time at 5.30 pm.

- Update : The photos have been selected, stitched, resized, captioned, and uploaded. So check out the photo gallery here.
