小巖城空軍基地航空展
地方性遺產

您曾坐過戰鬥機嗎
?許多城市會舉辦航空展,展覽會上有各式各樣的不同飛機展示和飛行秀,假如您參加了任一航空展,您也許就有機會近距離的觀看這些戰鬥機。

1955年起,小巖城空軍基地每年都會舉辦航空展,人們可以在此觀看美國空軍用飛機、端詳戰鬥機的駕駛員座艙、眼見傘兵自天空落下及欣賞戰鬥機的特技飛行表演,如:USAF雷鳥、U.S.海軍藍天使及加拿大空軍的雪雀。

這些戰鬥機都是由飛行技術高超的駕駛員所操控,只有精英中的精英才能駕駛這些戰機,進行表演。當雷鳥F-16戰機、藍天使F/A-18大黃蜂戰鬥機/攻擊艦及雪雀CT-114導引艦從天空呼嘯而過時,絕不允許任何錯誤發生,它們的飛行表演混合了團體的隊形變化及個別的飛 行特技表演,有時錯身而過的兩架飛機,機身只間隔幾英吋。每個中隊都有一套轉圈、旋轉、攀升及其他隊形的飛行表演,而演出當下的飛行時速為1,000 mph


Have you ever been inside a fighter jet? Many cities have air shows in which different kinds of planes are flown and displayed, and if you go to one, you just might get the chance to see one of these jets up close.

Every year since 1955, the Little Rock Air Force Base has had an Air Show, where people can view U.S. Air Force aircraft, look into the cockpits of fighter jets, watch parachutists tumble from the sky, and see the aerial acrobatics of fighter jets, like the USAF Thunderbirds, the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, and the Canadian Air Force Snowbirds.

All of these fighter jets are flown by extremely skilled pilots -- only the best of the best. There is no room for error when the Thunderbirds F-16 fighter jets, the Blue Angels F/A-18 Hornet fighter/attack aircraft and the Snowbirds CT-114 Tutor aircraft scream across the sky. They all fly a mix of formation maneuvers and solo routines, sometimes flying just inches past each other. Each squadron has a set of loops, rolls, climbs and other maneuvers it performs going as fast as 1,000 mph.
