The F-8 is such a beautiful jet. Thanks for posting. Sort of OT, is it just me or is there something a little sad about an airwing composed of just variations of the F/A-18? Maybe from the perspective of an airshow from the '70's when there was a variety of navy aircraft? I know the argument from cost, parts, etc. but just Hornets and Hawkeyes sure is boring to look at.
