yes, they flew.

hi bro, can check with you from which direction will they be coming in from? or the stunts will be performed from both directions?
deciding to go barrage or marina bay east to camp.. will 300mm be sufficient?

I saw them flew today. U can watch from marina barrage. There r coming from the sea flying toward barrage. 300 mm is good enough as there fly close n low

I was there. It was also a preview event for Air Force personnel & their family & the media. Got drenched in the rain but scored a few shots. Due to the rain, colours were dull & some views were obscured by the low lying clouds. Most stunts are repeats from Singapore Airshow. Only the finale was a special tribute to Singapore. I like that stunt very much.

any recommendations on where to take such shots?

For the 2015 RSAF Black Knights Jubilee weekend aerobatic display, the best place to take will be at the Marina Barrage.

However, it will be crowded as there is also the family for life picnic at the Marina Barrage on 7 - 8 August.

The RSAF Black Knights will come in from the left, right and centre.

I've some crappy photos of yesterday's preview for the media and ACCORD members.

I really enjoyed the bomb burst with flares in the finale of SA2014. A pity it didn't came back.

Weather was bad today. Stunts were not very awesome. Just simple formation fly by. But still good effort on our rsaf. Thumbs up.
