About
AERIALIS: The official aerobatic demonstration team
belonging to the 11th Squadron of the Japan Air Defense Organization (JADO).
Based at Aohama Air Base in Miyagi Prefecture, AERIALIS is an elite team that performs precise six-aircraft formation flights. Currently, they are deployed to the Tokyo metropolitan area for a few days for exhibition flights and public relations events.
Led by the Flight Leader of Aircraft No. 1, Kiyoharu Kaida, the team consists of six members: Ritsuki Takizawa, Yusei Uno, Haruto Shinoda, Ruka Azuma, and Aoto Higuchi.
While they maintain a flawless formation in the sky, once they land, these six men have vastly different personalities and ways of relating to others.
Their stay in Tokyo is brief, lasting only a few days. Soon, they will return to Aohama once again.
