I’m conflicted, I love F-18s, but they’re supposed to be blue...

You’re in luck. This is technically a CF-18!

An F/A-18, eh?

The fake cockpit painted on the bottom is quite weird. Probably doesn’t help much when you paint the top of the plane bright red though.
It’s a little more disorienting in flight though:

They do some nice throwback paint jobs

It’ll taxi out the hanger a lot easier with wheels.
Just saying.

It would be cool if the Snowbirds flew those instead of the CT-114's

I saw the Snowbirds last summer and I have to say, it was a little boring.

It’s not actually fake. Due to Canadian language laws, we have to have all the controls in both English and French. It takes up too much space though, so they installed a second cockpit to accommodate.

RCAF has had some great special liveries on the CF-18 fleet. Actually I can’t think of a bad one!

Looks like someone’s getting some pre airshow season maintenance done.

I watched this on my phone last night but with no volume. Today watching it on the computer with sound the irony of the song became apparent. Too bad the CF-18 had to die, but at least the pilot walked away with only minor injuries.

This rule also applies to E/A-18s...
