Eddie M. Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 These are from a FCLP with RAG squadrons. These were brand new Hornets and 3 of them got wrecked in a mishap involving an A-6 that broke a tailhook and drifted into the Hornets spotted on the port cat. Crew of the A-6 ejected and landed on deck with minor injuries. Before Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Cartwright Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) These are from VMFA-225. I posted some of these in the Real Aviation forum a while ago, but thought I'd throw them in here with a few notes: CO's Bird Recon variant Edit: There is a larger version of this image available on the AirShowBuzz.com website that might show a little more detail: http://www.airshowbuzz.com/files/photo/gal..._1156_e7c6b.jpg Edited October 14, 2007 by Ken Cartwright Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Midnight Storm Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Like a sexy blonde or a redhead, I've always loved the F/A-18 Hornet. :) Growing up it was a dream plane, and over the years we have developed a strong bond. I was torn to hear they will be taken out of duty soon. I'll be shooting F/A-18s as much as I can now! Here's to the Hornet! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
