2008 Rhode Island ANG Open House - F/A-18C Hornet Demo

F/A-18C Hornet Demonstration
VFA-106 "Gladiators"

2008 Rhode Island ANG Open House & Airshow
Quonset State Airport
North Kingstown, RI
Friday June 27, 2008

IN THIS VIDEO, watch as Lt. Adrian "Catfish" Jope flies a very dynamic demonstration in the Hornet over the skies of North Kingstown. He was unable to perform the photo pass as there was a warning light that went off in the cockpit related to engine oil pressure. It was an unrelated issue that was solved by switching out parts with the backup jet, since Catfish wanted to fly the CAG jet all weekend long. You are also treated to a demonstration without any narration and without any music.

Like what you've seen? Well, if you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .
