Anniversary show at CFB Trenton
Went to the show at CFB Trenton today. Got to go back tomorrow, too much to take in all at one go. Got some half decent pictures (as much by accident as good management!) Here is one of Hawk One with Snowbird Six and the Anniversary CF-18. I had to crop and shrink it a bunch to allow it to upload.

Re: Anniversary show at CFB Trenton
Here's one of C-17 702 in a max effort takeoff. He was at 30 plus degrees of pitch scrambling for the roof. Granted, he was empty, but impressive, none the less. When he landed after prancing about the sky like a gazelle, he came in very steep and slow, then on touchdown stopped the aircraft in a few lengths of itself, stopped and BACKED UP on reverse thrust for three or four lengths, then turned and faced the crowd virtually on the spot basically using forward and reverse thrust on opposite engines.
