On Wednesday 17th the Canadian Air Force took their CF-18 Hornet through LFA7 The Mach Loop Wales on their way to RIAT24.
As a tribute to their 100th Anniversary the jet had a special paint job and the hills were full of likeminded photographers and enthusiasts hoping to catch a glimpse of the new jet.
We left at 1am arriving at the lay-by by 3am to find only 2 spaces remaining which gave a pretty clear indication of just how busy it was going to be. After a couple of hours sleep in the car we headed up the hill to find a suitable spot and then waited.
At 9:40 the scanner picked up the Hornet and shortly after we heard the wild rumble of the jet engines screaming down the valley towards CAD. We waited patiently for what seemed an eternity until finally he rounded the corner of Bluebell extremely low and hurtled towards us!!
This was the result! I hope you enjoy it!!
