What do I have to do to get a ride in that? As long as I don't have to mortgage the house, I'm game.

 lol, good one mike. i have been dropping hints for awhile now to no avail. some years ago they had one of their airshows here in trenton and i supplied most of the dogs and burgers. the colonel running the show was a lady and i put the pressure on her how to get a ride and she told me if anybody is going for a ride she will be first. that pretty much stopped that effort, lol. i guess the cbc had more pull than she did when they sent mercer up for a ride for one of his shows. lol

Maybe but there are some other things on the cooker and I don't want to work until I am as old as Canada to pay for it all. biggrin

 i agree with the wow on the pic's, obviously not from someone's cell phone or mine anyway. lol if someone can explain or describe how they got that shot, 6th pic down, with the airflow going over and around the jet in flight i would be curious to know how that works and how much that camera would cost. guessing something to do with shutter speeds, maybe.

Now that was entertaining. Great photographs and story. Best of luck to both pilots, what a thrill.

whats the odds of this happening
-so you are out for a test hop in your newly painted f-18 high above northern alberta and along comes another f-18 who just happens to be your older brother

Resized_20170711_214127(1).jpeg

 

-hey bro whats up? ----over

-how about we shoot up to yellowknife for a quick coffee---over

-

-only if your buying, lol-----over

 

 

 i can see this is not going to be just another same ole-same ole family gathering this christmas. i think i heard that josh, the older brother/ now astronaut, is canada's youngest lieutenant-colonel, ever.

man i am glad this is just a family gathering for christmas and there is no gifts exchanged. what the hell would you get them?  maybe a couple of timmie's cards in exchange for a ride in one ---lmao 

-good for you guy's. you will be making your father proud, RIP barry, and i know your mom has a glow about her now and rightfully so.
