Awesome shots Laurie. Oh, how I dream of getting there someday! For now I'll have to settle for home.

From wiki
B= two seats
A= one seatOriginally Ordered 138: 98 CF-188A / 40 CF-188B. 15 CF-188A and 2 CF-188B have crashed since 1984, never during combat, killing a total of 7 pilots. 1 CF-188A and 7 CF-188B have been removed from operational service. Many of the crashed or retired aircraft are still used for parts as well as experimental and research purposes. Stationed at 3 Wing Bagotville and 4 Wing Cold Lake. Often referred to as "CF-18".

Re: Excellent photos
Interesting to see the stats! I'm assuming the removals were based on structural wear associated with the two seaters being involved in more training?old_man wrote:From wiki

Thanks for the comments everyone. I don't think I'll make it to Oshkosh this year, but surely planning to go within the next couple of years.

Re: Excellent photos
Citation landing 33, you have Flight Exec ramp, then a warehouse, then empty field, so taken from empty field (your above the fence line) looking East.
