The Air Show of Matsushima Air Base
Until 28th, August, 2016
The Air Show of Matsushima Air Base was not held Since the magnitude-9 earthquake shook northeastern of Japan.
Although it was smaller than before, about 10,000 people came to see the air show.
Before the earthquake, there were more than 80,000 people in here. To avoid the confusion, the people who was elected would be allowed to join in the air show.
The chance of seeing the air show depends on a postcard like this ・・・
