Notes: CD-ROM, Catalogue # 1055

This disc from Aero Research is the second one they have done on the F-18. Unlike the previous disc, this one has a lot more images of the Super Hornet, and there are a goodly number of in-flight photos as well. There are 152 large images in this edition and as you might expect, most of them are ramp shots with a few show images in the mix as well.

Each one of the images has as much information as is known about the subject, place and date provided. Aircraft are listed by unit so you will start with the Blue Angles and end with the various US Marine units that have flown the plane. Not surprisingly, the vast majority of images were taken at NAS Fallon, not surprising as Aero Research is based in Reno and the owner apparently has good relations with the base, making it possible for him to bring you a lot of these nice images.

Though the F-18 is mostly a grey plane, there have been a nice number of different unit markings carried by the aircraft over the years to make this a quite interesting disc for the fan.

Thanks to Aero Research for the review CD.
