Cf-18 A/C # 188761 went up for a Maintenance Test Flight in 188761 this morning in Mirabel. What's so special about this jet? Well,it still roars around Canadian skies having survived 2 pilot ejections and being rebuilt both times! The Nighthawk tail ( 761 is also known as the Phoenix ) art has been put aside on the replacement rudders which are now grey Also has 2 silk letdowns painted on the port side of the jet. I'da posted pic's here but Photobucket is U/S
It's also one of the excellent paints that Mark Heimer did for the Canadian Hornet package
