2017 RCAF CF-18 Hornet Demo Team’s Demo Hornet @ Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum March 24, 2017Hello everyone! Welcome to this video! Here’s something I’ve been wanting to catch this year for a while! The 2017 RCAF CF-18 Hornet Demo Team’s Demo Jet. This RCAF CF-18 Hornet is specially painted to celebrate Canada’s 150th and honestly, its one of the best Hornet paint schemes I’ve seen ever in my personal opinion. The Hornet is visiting the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton, Ontario as a preview of what their is to see of it at the airshows in Toronto and Brantford this year. Today, it visited from 1500-1700hrs local time and then tomorrow it will be around from 0900-1200hrs local time before departing towards its next show.
The Hornet arrived shortly after 1500hrs local time at John C. Munro Hamilton Int’l, being given RWY 06 by the Tower cause it was the closest RWY to land on and the fact that their was a pit of photographers read to shoot it there. After doing several low breaks it landed RWY 06 where I got it before heading inside to catch it being towed in and staying around for the media action. It was fantastic! The Hornet was gorgeous as always, met several familiar faces and even got a shot with Matthew “Glib” Kutryk. It was an amazing event that I was glad to be apart of. Now to catch it an airshow! Enjoy the video! 🙂
