The Black Eagle aerobatic team of the South Korean air force<\/strong>, flying a T-50 training aircraft, reportedly arrived at Kaohsiung International Airport<\/strong> in the city\u2019s Xiaogang District on August 18 at around 11 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The group flew to Taiwan for a four-hour layover after giving a performance in the Philippines. The team’s ground personnel and equipment were flown first by a C-130 transport aircraft. Six T-50B Black Eagle jets followed that with a series of descents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before departing again for Seoul, the plane refuelled at Kaohsiung International Airport. According to military analysts cited by UDN, the South Korean crew decided to refuel in Kaohsiung because the flight from Manila to Seoul was outside the T-50 aircraft’s range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, Taiwan’s military chose not to provide any additional information, stating that the rule applies to all stopover flights made by foreign military aircraft into the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The team’s KAI T-50B Golden Eagles, an aerobatic plane developed by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) and Lockheed Martin, attracted a large number of military personnel and aviation enthusiasts to the best viewing areas near the airport early that morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of their 365-day world tour, the group has been performing over the skies of the UK, Poland, and Egypt. The most recent refuelling stop for the “Black Eagles<\/strong>” Aerobatic Team before heading to the Singapore Airshow was in Taiwan in 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
