Yep, we been flying them for 30 years...

 

Some amazing skilled artist will probably do all the Sqns. I remember spending part of the summer with 433 Sqn in the early 90s as an Air Cadet. Great Unit.

One of my favorites. Even if the pic is of a D model.

I understand the CF-188 wont be done but there are great skinners out there. And so what if we dont have a spot light off the left side of the nose.

 

But yeah. If your invading... You need invasion stripes.

Has ED made any announcements about including CAG birds? From what I've seen in the videos released thus far they will be including line hornets but I haven't heard any mention of the latter, many of which have been requested on this thread.

 

For anyone who doesn't know, CAG aircraft are the more colorfully painted ones, typically flown by the CO.

I would love to have a Canadian paint scheme. I understand why it wont happen and its no big deal. our in house skinner will take care of that!

 

But operations side of things man am I happy to see that the target pod will be able to be set up on the center line!

 

When you get one of the Canadian jets and they are holding 3 bags of gas the pilot calls blind every ten seconds. Its been a personal issue for me and Im glad its being addressed by ED. Sad Cold lake couldnt take care of this before Iraq! Getting stuff in Canada changed on air frames requires an act of God after the debates.

 

Thanks ED

AFAIK, there has been no Mention of CO or XO Schemes yet.

Any chance that a default CF-18 skin could be available to the Canadian coalition? I know RCAF doesn't fly the C model, but Russia and Israel do not fly the A-10C either :-)

No worries, I will be pushing for it when the time comes...
