    After Aeronautica militare italiana, I love Hellenic Air Force. Great men, great planes
    Total respect from Italy

    The Phantom with advanced upgrades to its engines and radar and avionics is still a very capable jet.

    It's still one of the most beautiful planes and very unique in design. One of my all time favourites. I worked on them for many years at Hellenic Aerospace.👍🇬🇷

      Thanks a lot bud. That was a tough decision. I think the tower had potential to be awesome, but I was worried it might be difficult to shoot video there, so I sort of hedged my bets a bit. My brother was in the tower, it sounded like a cluster funk 😳

    Hi just wondering if they allow spotters near the base, I know its quite restricted in Greece compared to the UK. I'm going to Zakynthos for 3 weeks and would love to go hear for a few days.

      Hey man. No unfortunately not. On this trip we were on base with 338 squadron. If you try to view the jets outside you normally draw the attention of the security. A group of brits were arrested a few years ago :(

    Πρόσφατα χάσαμε δυο παληκάρια ετσι αδικα απο ένα τετοιο αεροσκάφος που όπως λέτε ολοι αναβαθμίστηκε τόσο πολύ που δεν είναι το F-4 το παλιό το εργοστασιακό κι όμως σε χαμηλή πτήση έπεσε το αεροσκάφος στη θαλασσα, αλλες ευρωπαικές χώρες το έχουν αποσύρει εντελώς,δεν μπηκαν στην διαδικασια αναβαθμισης,μηπως πρεπει να κάνουμε κι εμεις το ιδιο??? ειδικά τώρα που πήραμε Rafale κι έρχονται το 2025 και τα F-35,το F4 δεν το είχα ποτέ σε εκτίμηση ακόμη κι όταν ήμουνα μικρός τη δεκαετια του 90' και το έβλεπα στον αέρα..
