Marv Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Is this the first time that A-4's have worn the Maple Leaf? That scheme is sure neat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I was supposed to do up a large scale model for them last year like this one.... Don't know what happened to that , guess they found someone better. (but a lot more expensive I'll bet) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mungo1974 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 It would be cool to have decals for these and the Draken International A-4L/K's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Djack Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I agree Mungo, decals for the Draken A-4L/K's would be great! David Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Snap Captain Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Way cool, but I don't get it. Are these guys private operators flying training sorties? For who? Does the RCAF use them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin_sam_2000 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Way cool, but I don't get it. Are these guys private operators flying training sorties? For who? Does the RCAF use them? Discovery Air Defence Service ( yes...it's DADS) is a private company contracted to do military dis-similar training. They are using Alpha Jets right now in Canada, and they just started to use the A-4's with the Luftwaffe in Germany. I don't think we will see the A-4's too much in Canadian Air Space. There is talk of them getting F-16's, but I have no idea when, what they will do with them or where they will be based and/or used. They also have Westwinds set up as target tugs and a few challengers set up for electronic work. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think they will be limited to Germany. I hink they have already been contracted out through North America. Edited May 31, 2015 by Scooby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
