I feel like I'm being spoiled with the CF-18 love around here lately but that last one is really nice too lol

Btw we do have hooks but we don't use 'em haha. I believe runways at CFB Bagotville and CFB Cold Lake have cables for 'practicing' lol.

it's rather remarkable that there's even such a group you can join to be part of something like this. I've never heard of anything like it out here.

AzAP started as a Flickr group but eventually morphed into a "flesh and blood" group of folks.
