Cool! Love the Hornet! Did it fly?

The Spitfire is a wooden flying replica, powered by an Allison.

Thanks for the info Paul....I didn't stay for the flying, but the Hornet was parked with the planes that normally don't fly.

Barry, why aren't you showing our British friends the thing that is going to be blowing their minds at Legends? :)

Aluminium/welded steel fuselage, wooden wings. The prop originally came from a Dakota!

Great set!
I think that Hornet should do a photo flight with our Camp Typhoon!

Not to steal your thunder...but I think August was talking about this:

Or did it taxi over after you left?

They did fly a twilight airshow on Friday. The CF-18 flew twice on Friday, and once each on Saturday and Sundy.
