HONOURING THE RCAF CF-18 DEMO TEAM: Looking back at their VERY BEST performances!

Описание: The CF-18 Demo team has become a staple of Canadian airshows with their incredible performances. Every year they came out with a new and exciting theme which made you want to catch them all! Sadly it has been announced that there will be no 2025 CF-18 demo team - the demo team will be replaced by a select few shows doing an F-18 tactical demonstration. It is unclear if the Royal Canadian Air Force will bring back the demo team in 2026 but that does not seem likely.

This news will defiantly sadden airshow fans as it does seem like thee CF-18 demo team is now a think of the past, I thought it would be nice to remember some of the greatest moments from the team over the last 9 years. 2020 there of course was no airshows and in 2023 there was no official demo jet however I have been tracking the demo livery every year since 2014 and my 2 favourite by far is the 2017 (Canada's 150th anniversary) and 2024 (RCAF Centennial Anniversary).
