Canada has an air force? Maybe they had trouble passing coal while airborn.

Question ... who provided the KC-130? The jets are identified as CF-18s. But, the nationality of the KC-130 wasn't. Who says it was a Canadian tanker?

Also, are we now open for ridicule every time there is a malfunction with our military hardware? Will the US be held to the same standard should Kerry get in?

Also, are we now open for ridicule every time there is a malfunction with our military hardware? Apparently those who ridicule know little of their own navy's history . The fate of the USS Scorpion , USS Thrasher or the cost of delay in knowing the fate the USS Indianapolis are lost on them .
Ignorance makes it easy to point fingers.

Thats the fastest version of a C-130 I have ever seen.
To: Murtyo
The five F-18s were en route from Saragossa in Spain to an Air Force base in Canada and were due to refuel in mid air from a KC 130 tanker. Question is ... was the tanker a British, U.S. or Canadian KC130? It's not unusual for allied countries to fuel one another's aircraft ... the fueling bill is sent along to the appropriate party.
