A21-11 / 11 (cn 0334/AF011) The F/A-18 Hornet Flying Display at the 2008 Amberley Defence Airshow was spectacular - No 3 Squadron F/A-18A A21-11 is airborne off the Amberley runway for her Solo Handling Display. The GE F-404 engines are producing plenty of thrust in After-Burner. (The 3 Sqn 'Southern Cross' logo is on the tail fin.) Special thanks to George Canciani for Editing this image. |
