AIRSHOW: A closer look at the CF-18 Hornet
A CF-18 Hornet piloted by Capt. Patrick Gobeil took to the skies as part of the Abbotsford International Airshow on Friday morning.
Gobeil, a Canadian Forces Snowbird from 2004 to 2006, demonstrated the capabilities of the "True North" fighter jet, while an in-cockpit video camera recorded the experience.
The demo takes place again at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Gates open at 8 a.m. each day. Visit abbotsfordairshow.com for more information, including the complete schedule of events.
