Hehehe...thanks for the morning chuckle. :P  But in reality...I feel the need to do this.... :facepalm:

I personally like this one, found on the CBC website..... http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/story/2011/03/21/f-cf18-hornet-bg.html

Thanks for your kind words. Work today and then fishing tomorrow, should have a couple more posted by the time Monday rolls around including some AETE stuff from the range. Cheers all, and have a great weekend. AP

No, Mike need not do anything....it's the views from here that ate up room on the Photobucket server which caused the bandwidth issue...all bs in my opinion. Anyways, I upgraded to a pro account and now you should be able to see the photos without any problem. I'm creating an album on my...

Hello Armynewsguy, The shots that I've posted above were all shot with the Canon 7D with either the 100-400mm or 24-105mm lens with the image stabilization (IS) turned on.  I find that the IS systems in both Canon and Nikon is a fantastic feature and should be used at all times...but this is...

Muchos gracias senor.... :salute:

My bad, I apologize.  Tonight I'm going to try to id whether the one in the picture is a stretched C.3 as opposed to a short C.1.  The RAF website about 47 Squadron just mentions that the plane is used, but not whether it was used by SF Flight.

I believe it would come down to which ones have been stretched and which ones haven't been, I'll take a gander at some other photos later today to figure it out.  It was also neat to learn about the defensive aids sub-system (DASS) and the suite of sensor systems as part of a Enhanced Vision...

Was told that they were practicing with a .50 Cal, but if you tell me it isn't, I'll believe you as my knowledge of firearms isn't good at all. :)

Some of my shots from arrival day at Waterloo before I got busy....cheers. One of the unique snowflakes on the bird...

Had the chance to take in their first show of the year - a great group and a stellar performance by all who jumped! The entire gallery can be found here ->  2012 Skyhawks Season Opener Just gotta love the patriotism of the team.. Holding formation until they're about 100ft off the...

I understand that, and appreciate you pointing it out. Realistically though, isn't the higher cost simply calculated by adding factors which, according to the committee meeting, were never included in previous acquisitions?  And if they weren't included in previous acquisitions, then why the...

I want to preface this by stating that I'm not in the military, nor do I have any extensive knowledge about the procurement process.  I just happen to believe that the F-35 is the right choice based on the public information that I've read up to this point. Is it just me, or does a committee...
