關島度假賞機行

Posted on January 28, 2009

這幾年來真是越來越討厭春節,雖然一次可以放好幾天假,但是各地湧現的人潮和車潮卻總是讓好好的假期浪費在塞車和失望上,反而不能好好休息一下。所以此次老婆大人提議到關島過年,難得我馬上就爽快答應。 出發前我早就研究好我們住的凱悅飯店正面對安德森空軍基地的下滑道,此行的另一個願望就是希望可以看到B-52和剛剛才進駐的F-22,所以只要是沒出去的時候,我就會拿著相機坐在陽台上一方面欣賞泳池裡的比基尼美女,一方面等待返航的軍機(我的結論是,美女和軍機一樣難得)。在關島的最後一天早上,終於讓我拍到第一張軍機照片,而且正是我夢寐以求的B-52: 信不信由你,這是我第一次拍到飛行中的B-52,可惜距離實在太遠,所以效果不佳,不過可以辨識出是Minot空軍基地來的,而且還是聯隊長座機。 過了不久,又看到第二架B-52,這回距離稍近,光線也比較好一點,所以連拍了好幾張,可以看到起落架放下的過程: 莫非定律之賞機版:「飛機多半出現在身邊沒有相機的時候」。其實前一天在浮潛的時候就錯過了一架降落中的大型軍機(我是大近視眼,沒戴眼鏡就看不出是哪一型),最後一天也錯過了一架KC-10和兩架C-130。幸好還是捕捉到了一架KC-135R和海軍的MH-60S: 起初我以為這是一架HH-60或是SH-60。 回來比對後,才發現它是一架MH-60S。 這回終究是沒看到F-22。不過仔細想想,F-22的迴轉半徑遠小於大型軍機,應該不用繞到旅館區所在的杜夢灣,所以也只好再等下次了。

See Ya Later!
