F 16 just showed up for practice....

Such a great little jet. The pilot is almost in a lying back position in the cockpit...

It's the Ferrari of fighters...

Iron Eagle FTW!!!

Originally posted by VDub Twice a 16 maybe but the 18 is a pretty big plane... Agreed that it's an incredible machine... That manueverability is thanks to it's vectored thrust... It is def a treat to watch it's display... God can you believe these guys get paid to do these shows??? Id give my left nut...

Correct, maybe its the f15 or f16 that flys with the f22 and looks about half the size. Definitely not the f18.

RAPTOR IS UP!!!

It's shrieking...

Manuevers so tight, I don't think it's coming over my head dammit...

I was just outside watching the f22 go straight up, and then free fall back down. Fuckin amazing.

Best job in the world?

Perfect view of it from liberty village.

Absolutely the best job in the world...

16 and 22 in formation now. Doing the generations thing. Probably join a
mustang for the show...

Sucks I'm leaving work now and headed up to yorkdale so no more plane spotting for me.

The F 15 is actually about the same size as the 22...

Both a little bigger than the 18...

So jealous of you guys getting to see this just by walking outside.

Last week though we did have an Avro Lancaster and a B-17 fly overhead a bunch of times for the Waterloo air show.

Damn I'm jealous you get to see all this. I only get to see a couple tutors flying randomly and a stray blue angel Although when I worked at the airport I saw the blue angels all flying together going low to the run way then one lands and the other ones fly back around and does the same thing. Also saw the Antonov, that plane is HUGE!!
