What will the Canadians use now as their front-line interceptor?

Eielson AB had a few T-33s long ago, and in 1979 or 1980 they allowed non-pilot air crewmembers (and a few penguins) to ride front-seat.

I got my chance and was amazed and how agile and fast that old bird was. When they say 'balls to the walls' that's what literally happens.

Now I know why fighter jocks have those silly-looking g-suits. And 'Gold Bond' medicated powder ;-)

Before the A-10 went into production we used to have a squadron of AT-33s here at Barksdale AFB.

I always liked the goofy little things.

How will they defend against the Russian MiG 19s or German Me242s? Madness!

I was shocked to see a CF T-33 at an airshow nearly 15 years ago and couldn't believe it was still in active service. However, look at the venerable B-52 that is still in our active inventory.

I've always had a fondness for the ' Shooting Star'. I think it was my first model kit as a kid.
