No not the wind tornadoes!

We're being invaded!! I am guessing they British--not too may countries have them and they are old.

 

today while workin i thought i heard a fighter jet take off but i never actually saw it... guess this was it!

Also later i saw a Canadian CC-130 Hercules take off from the airport which was pretty cool.

 

Sweet pics!! Must be an airshow somewhere and they needed a top up. Definitely not a fuel meiser.

 

I saw the Snowbirds out within the past week too, they flew really low to the ground really close to Beddington Trail one morning, it was awsome i was so stoked to see them again.

 

Wouldn't they be leaving the Saskatoon air show?

 

No clue, I don't follow the snowbirds, but I LOVE seein them any chance I can.

 

Hey Avro, ya I saw them when we were at Race City on Friday! Kinda odd to see them but maybe they were doing joint exercises with our POS..lol

 

POS is right, we need some actual good jets but that will never happen. Maybe Canada is saving up to get some spacecraft fighters in the next 50-100 years when it finally becomes a reality. *I know I know......keep dreaming.......o yes I will keep dreaming*

 

Out CF-18s just got some electronic/comunication upgrades--so we'll have them for another 10 years, I'd say.

Theres a good chance we'll step up and buy the F-35 Lightning 2--AKA JSF.

But we also need to replace the Tudor aircraft out Snowbirds use. Best areobatic team in the world--oldest planes

 

I'll say one thing, our F-18's will mop up on those Tornado's if it was a one on one, too bad they probably have 400 of them and we have 20.

 

^^^^^^^^^ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd say lets get our Snowbirds some Javelin trainers to fly. Link below P.S. I WANT ONE TOO!!!!!!

damn those are cool

 

Hmmmmm, 1000L capacity will take you to the 1600km range, which equals about 4.52mpg. Alot of fun, but i'll stick with the Cobalt. I think i could pay for the Cobalt with one annual inspection on the Javelin. Now if 6/49 would guarantee me a winning ticket.......

 

Those Javalins are pretty sweet tho, that'd be a dream come true to ever fly one of those.

 

Saw last night on Edmonton news that those Tornadoes are in Calgary doing military training with Cdn and British soldiers in the area. News said they are flying in & out every day. Pretty cool.
