Leg 29: Price George (CYXS) to Hinton/Jasper (CEC4)


Recommended Posts

I decided what ATWC really need is a real hot rod aircraft!

So I introduce to you the F/A-18E painted in RCAF 410 Squardon colours. This is a fictional repaint for the 18E since the 410 only fly the CF-18. The repaint is for the 2003 Tiger Meet of the Americas.

It's time to kick the tires and light the fires

Can anybody say unrestricted climb?

Since I already had the airplane, time for some aerobatics. High G turn

Maybe a bit too hard? Starting to black out

The end of a low and over

Notice the altitude? FL300 in a vertical climb in about 5 seconds!

Still got plenty of gas to burn! good thing I'm not paying for it!

I bet those GA guys didn't think they were going to see a F/A-18E today!

WoW faster than the speed of sound! 

 

Superb post Sean, the locals won't see this again so it's good you put on a show.

...Erm no, but I am! I've had to extend the credit card limit again  :D 

See you later to pick the baton up.

 

Cheers,

Joe
