Nice shots of these jets, Christian. Are they F-18 Hornet or Super Hornet? I have seen the Canadian Snow birds and their F-18 demo several times, great stuff.
Thanks, Doug.
The RCAF flies the original spec F/A18-A Hornet (plus a few Canadian spec goodies that I can't remember). The guys from CFB Cold Lake in Alberta (~1000 + km East) come out West and fly out of CFB Comox on patrols every so often, but I've never noticed actual ordnance loaded on them. You usually see the external fuel tanks - the Hornet is rather short legged otherwise - but spotting the Sidewinder/AMRAAMs on the rails was unexpected. These guys touched down long enough to refuel and then headed North rather quickly afterwards.

In any case something has changed for the better.
