Canadian CF-188 Hornet 188776 was chosen to receive a special paint scheme to celebrate the 60th Anniversary of NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command). NORAD is an agreement between Canada and the United States of America that monitors and defends North America against any hostile aerial aggression. More commonly known as a CF-18 in Canada 188776 will be the 2018 demonstration aircraft that will fly in air shows throughout Canada and the U.S. It will be piloted by Captain Stefan “Porcelain” Porteous, a ten year veteran. NORAD’s motto is “We Have the Watch”.

The McDonnell Douglas (Boeing) F/A-18 Hornet is a supersonic, twin-engine, all-weather night fighter and attack aircraft flown by the U.S Navy, U.S Marine Corps and other allied nations.
