After a year of trying to get a date pinned down and my paperwork done I got to spend a couple days on base at CFB Cold lake.

Here are some of my favorite shots.

Nice.....love the Griffon shot. Always loved shots of a/c on Cold Lake's ramp.

Great shots!! Thanks for sharing them. Canada's lo vis Hornet with its light lettering on dark gray and false canopies look so elegant.

What is wrong with the aircraft in this photo?

Something isn't "normal".

Do you mean the titles surrounding the fuselage roundel? That doesn't seem to be 'normal' for other CF-18s (including other 408 TFS aircraft).

That's it. The titles have been gone for a decade at least.

The rest of the markings were "standard".
