The RCAF has shown off their CF-18 demo aircraft for 2015, and should make for an interesting modeling subject.

Great scheme. I wonder if Canuk Models will come out with a decal sheet for it. It would be a different and colourful addition to anyone's collection

What a beautiful scheme! I love the trend of retro paint schemes on planes in the past years. I certainly hope this makes it to decal form.

Best wishes,

A most stunning paint scheme for sure. And that black & white painting on the tail really adds to the overall effect. It sure would make a fantastic model display.
