Another cool photo to share
Gents, saw this photo on the web. It’s a CF-18 in the intercept position off a Tu-95 Bear aircraft. The photo itself is pretty nice in and of itself, but I just love “slime” lights US and NATO aircraft have – they just look cool. For you car builders, slime lights are the green-lit stripes you see on the Hornet. They are used at night to fly in formation – the wingman places his plane off the lead based on his view of the lead’s slime lights.
For you truck and car builders, can any of you identify the aircraft in the far background?

That is obviously a Sopwith Camel! Why any car modeler would know that, the dead give away is the twin machine guns mounted in front of the open cockpit. Which is clearly visible in the high def image you provided. Sarcasm provided free of charge
