Beyond cool! I hope it's based with one of the VAQ Squadrons @ N.A.S. Whidbey Island, it's about 15 miles due West of my house and I get a pretty cool airshow several times a week, 'GROWLERS' aren't any more quiet than an EA but who cares?

This site has a pretty good selection of the ones that have been done so far.

I'm really looking forward to seeing a bunch of the heritage-schemed aircraft at the San Diego event next month.

Yes! The only way that could be any better is if it was
a ragurlar attack A-6 in that same retro scheme. Makes
me wish for a "Final Countdown" of Coral Sea! Have you
seen the other retro planes done for the CONA???

Love the F-18 in three-tone (although the underside should really be white.)

The EA-18G "Growler" is my favorite.
