POTUS TAKES A RIDE WITH THE JASDF

While in Tokyo, the JASDF offered to take him up in one of their birds.  He was hoping for a JASDF F15, but was mildy surprised with the two planes that flew that day.  POTUS took his seat aboard a JASDF 401st Squadron, 1st Tactical airlift Group c130h.  The real treat was the Mitsubishi MU2S SAR airplane that joined them for the dawn flight around Tokyo that I got to go on.  Hope you enjoy!

Next, POTUS is on his way to Syndey!  C and C welcome!
