CF-18 @ Speed!

Hi All

A CF-18 Super Hornet just under the speed of sound! I could feel the shock waves before the aircraft passed. I’ll post some more pictures from Hamilton soon.

Hi Growler,

I didn’t know – someone at the show said that’s what it was.:apologetic:

Awesome, its not a Super Hornet, it’s a CF-18 Hornet. It’s quite diffrent comparing those two planes. There the same but they are mostly noticed by their LERX intakes. While the Super Hornet is bigger and longer. But Leding you know the diffrence.
