F/A-18C No 163705


Recommended Posts

I have that sheet too---I've been looking for years for a photo of that plane/scheme----that's my all-time fave Hornet, but I've only ever seen models/drawings of it. I did find one pic that I'm pretty sure is it, but it's about a 1x2 inch pic of a flight deck in a book.

Finding pics earlier and later is easy, but the Desert Shield era one seems impossible, despite how many pics there are of Navy planes then...

I don't have any pics, I've looked through all my Desert Storm books. That paint scheme looked familiar, I rememered it fro somewhere. I picked up some posters from an airshow, can't recall which one. Thiocol Corp. who make motors for HARM and Patriot missles systems had this poster. It is a Mark Waki print of your bird firing HARM missles with Patriots in the background. Just thought I would share. Don M.
