Aircraft at YVR, military
Hey all,
Are the hornets sitting in temp hangers at YVR there for "security" during the olympics or are they just on a regular deployment.
If they are, what security issue is envisaged that a supersonic fighter would be able to solve?

They are there for 2010 security. As for there role it is probably interception and also surveillance as part of a larger force. Ready for any possibilities. Normally the closest F18 are in Cold Lake, AB.
