Static display - Portuguese Air Force 71st Anniversary


The city of Bragança hosted the celebrations for the 71st anniversary of the Portuguese Air Force, with a static display of various vehicles in the city centre, such as the F-16 and Alpha Jet fighters, the Alouette III helicopter and the HMMWV, used by the Air Force's tactical communications and Tactical Air Control Groups. It was also possible to visit several stands with the various Air Force units. At Bragança Airfield, two Chipmunk MK20 and two Epsilon TB-30 aircraft were on display. In the hangar, as in the city centre, there were more stands from units such as the Núcleo de Operações Táticas de Projeção, the Reconnaissance and Explosive Ordnance Disposal Squadron and the NRBQ Defence Squadron. It was also possible to take a flight in the C-295M of the 502 "Elefantes" Squadron.
