Checker Checker (441 TFS)

This is a flying video that I put together for the retirement of our Commanding Officer at the time (Thorney). It covers the two years he was in charge of 441 Tactical Fighter Squadron in Cold Lake. Covers most of what we do with the hornet.

Actually that Finnish Hornet shot is from Pirkkala AB, Tampere.

Great vid! Hey Squish, when can we expect "Flying Videos from the 2006 Combat Season"? I bought a couple copies of the 2005 edition and watch mine at least once a week. I can't wait for the next edition!

It is in fact a finnish hornet. It made the video because I think it is a fairly impressive shot. Nice catch though - it is the only shot that is not a Canadian hornet, and was used because I needed a couple more still shots for that section of the vid. The rest of the video was taken from squadron deployments around the globe.

Where the front end of the aircraft comes out of the bushes.

Nice Vid. I liked all the inside jokes you put into it. I know I didn't understand all of them, but I'm sure thorney got a kick out of them and appreciates the thought you put into it.
