Hornet Video

Sitting at my desk at 7:30 feeling a bit glum, I found this Video on www.youtube.com just type in Magic F/A 18 "Hornet" Ride in the search box sit back and enjoy. I wonder if the CAA will let me operate a Hornet on a Permit to Fly?

As a former CF-18 (and GR-4) driver - you are dead right!
When we took students supersonic for the first time in the Hornet, we'd get them to look to the wings and the v & h stabs just to see how much flappin' is goin' on - scary, when super!
Much less wing movement, other than fore an' aft, in the GR-4...
