| Jurgis at Motegi, Oct 31 - Nov 2 |
Unfortunately, all flights were canceled after the accident.
Instead, the runway area open house was held free of charge for the
rest of the event days. Jurgis was there to meet the fans and sign
autographs for all who had come along even knowing there was to be no
flying.
This time, a new name was drawn on the side of the Su31 nose. It is
"Kuuzoku" - The two characters represent "sky" and "pirates" very
similar to the name of Jurgis' formation team the "Air Bandits".
The origin of the Japanese name is from a popular Japanese animated
movie about a pilot who flew around the Mediterranean and Adriatic
fighting a single handed vigilante war against air borne pirates in
large float equipped "ships". |
