Oh Ok

[@quantumhelium]

Amazing. From, Okinawa... AMAZING

[@J_C7-1]

It never ceases to amaze me on that distinct noise it makes with a high speed pass. Beautiful.

[@lmichellerx]

Tikiman 7 I agree! There is nothing like it.

[@prestonsnowbird5410]

Great video seen this in Thompson, Canada. Great roaring jet sound fright me up lol

[@VMCAviationVideos]

Beautiful air display 🇨🇦

What’s the difference between a CF-18 Hornet and f-18 super hornet?

[@aviatornick3660]

André Carvalho what do you mean it’s the predecessor of the super hornet?

[@aviatornick3660]

André Carvalho oh so it’s like a newer version of the super hornet?

[@aviatornick3660]

André Carvalho alright sorry it is the predecessor

[@BullGator-kd6ge]

@@aviatornick3660 The CF-18 is the Canadian version of the FA 18 hornet which is built in the US. The Super Hornet (which Canada doesn't operate) is a newer and more modern version of it.

[@BullGator-kd6ge]

@@aviatornick3660 Hornets with the A, B, C, and D, are considered Legacy Hornets because they are the oldest models. The E and F models are the never Super Hornets.

This was my first year going to Airshow London, it was definitely worth it. I live on a farm about 5 miles northeast of the airport so I would watch from the top of the silos and the Snowbirds would always get into formation right above me and it is cool as hell. It's completely different watching it from the ground seeing all the maneuvers.

[@nybotor1]

Thanks for the great footage! I saw that Hornet demo three times this summer, and it always impressed me! They did a twilight show at Abbotsford and the afterburner was breathtaking.

[@Kjell777Iverson]

Canadian CF-18 pilot after performing a roll with his gear still down right off the jump: "Sorry, eh?"

[@BullGator-kd6ge]

I have yet to see a Legacy Hornet in action but I do hope to soon.

Why do they the Canadians and other countries keep the tailhook?

[@andrewpuckridge7633]

Great for emergency landings you can string an arrester wire over a std runway. Plus if you need to operate from a carrier :)

[@doogleticker5183]

Landing in the Arctic on short runways was the justification at the time of procurement.

[@ginacalabrese3869]

An airworthy CF-18?

[@maryrafuse2297]

Strange comment. The CF-18 has been updated several times. It is more modern than you think. Yes I would like to see the F-35 in the RCAF but the updated CF-18 still has a role to play over the north. I would like to see both aircraft operational in the RCAF.

[@doogleticker5183]

@@maryrafuse2297 - You can only "renew" the airframe so many times (I'm a vet, I know my birds). The masters of the RCAF should either get on board the F-35 train or buy SuperHornets or the latest F-15s until they get serious. Perspective: the UK has already adopted the F-35 alongside the Eurofighter...why is that? It's called keeping up with the Joneovictches.

[@johnready630]

I'd rather see the Super Hornet replace them and stay with 2 engines over our vast northern areas.

[@doogleticker5183]

@@johnready630 - Logically, that seems reasonable...

[@daverae7544]

I'm Canadian, but watch the swiss version of this!

[@delten-eleven1910]

Watched it too, the Swiss AF demo was unlike one I've ever seen here in the U.S.

[@ybrik5937]

Some of the best dirty rolls I've seen is within 4-5 seconds after the gears get off the ground, this one is way mooore than that.

[@douglaskeane1792]

Is this an ex RAAF airframe???

[@doogleticker5183]

No, the Aussies used their maxed out 8000 hours of airframe life and got the nitwit Trudeau to buy junk instead of making a decision about replacing the puny F-18 fleet Canada has. He became an Honourary Aussie Feminist in return...

[@larrypeters3675]

That take off literally scared me. I thought the pilot pulled back to hard and almost scraped the tail

[@doogleticker5183]

Excellent pilot, obsolete aircraft...even with the Aussie spare parts. When is Canada going to join the 21st century??

[@rayjay5836]

Hey Hoser it's the pilot not the bird.

[@Bergstaller01]

Canada does this on clapped out airframes. We need new fighters, fuck the politics at this point.

[@idiedoof4339]

They will be replacing their Cf-18 fleet in a couple of years with either the Saab Jas 39 E Gripen, F-35 Lightning II, or F-A-18 Super Hornet. Airframes are still in good condition tho.
