Good bye YS-11
The main purpose of this travel is to take on the YS-11, which will vanish in this September.

3-Sep-06 (Sun)

JAL1413 arrived at Tokushima Airport on time. The departure time of JAC3562 is 14.00, so I had much time in Tokushima. The reason that I departed Tokyo early in the morning was to take photographs of Naruto Line in Tokushima.

I reserved the window seat at Tokyo Haneda Airport to take photographs in this flight. I thought that the film camera has an advantage to the digital camera because we can take photographs when departing and landing.

I found the Seto Bridge after 30 minutes.

I arrived at Fukuoka Airport just before 16.00 and had more than 2 hours before sunset. So I visited Imajuku to take photographs of the Chikushi Line.

4-Sep-2006 (Mon)

The departure time of JAC3595 for Matsuyama is 13.20. So I spent time to take photographs of the Kagoshima Line between Tempaisan and Haruda.

JAC3563 departed Tokushima Airport 1 hour before JAC3595, so I took its photographs from the observatory tower.

[For Tokushima]

I let a passanger to take my commemorative photograph just when other passangers were out of my sight. I was fat especialy in the middle and was with a vacant stare because I had already drunk more than 1.5 litre beer today.

I was surprised that all the flight attendants were identical as those of JAC3562 yesterday.

I went to Dogo and back to take in the hot spring in Dogo Onsen before JAL1470 bound for Tokyo Haneda departed. Below is "Botchan Ressha" in Dogo Onsen Station.

JAL1470 arrived at Tokyo Haneda Airport on time.

My travel schedule of these 2 days was just like that of TV personality that I took on 4 flights and visited Tokushima, Fukuoka and Matsuyama only in 2 days.
