Heritage Flight


Couldn't get enough of the CF-18, I wasn't a fan of the BoB 75th Anniversary paint job until I saw it in person





Blues, by far my favorite demo team to photograph

I dont think i'll ever like it, it just doesnt work at all. If they'd kept it matt instead of using gloss and got the colours right it might have looked better, more like the RAF did with the typhoon smile

thank you Big Dog, be on the ready for their last maneuver when all the jets come at you and drop flares... I had a guy tell me the night before and I still forgot about it and missed them all together...



I agree Meat, the dull colors look a lot better.

I must admit the CF18 scheme just doesn't look right at all, but that T-33 (?) looks superb, but what a difference blue skies make, looks like a great show.

thank you, as much as I've shot them, that pic with the guy in the back of #4 looking up really brought it to my attention! I would have loved to been in his seat with my Gopro. thumbsup
