I remember they had similar invasion stipes on a Kiowa back in 1994 before they were retired.

That is also a fantastic shots of the water drop!

Ollie,

Very cool 8) Have not seen photos of the "80th" CF-18 before. Where is the exact location of the show? It almost looks like a Bagotville setting.

Nice shots Ollie. Even one of one of my favorite non-warbirds(or could you call it a warbird?). Now if only the US Forest Service would get over their not invented here syndrome and hire some 415s, or 215s, they sound better.

Thanks guys.

Rob, the Broussard is owned bya guy near Sherbrooke, I don't recall his name.

The US birds were two separate acts, so there was no hook up.
