I may be mistaken but those Forgers don't appear to be chained down on the flight deck

And this is how you shoot down a Harrier.

No! No! No! He's saying "This is how you get shot down by a Harrier!"

#ICYMI A @USNavy MQ-4C Triton, @usairforce RQ-4 Global Hawk, B-52 Stratofortresses, and KC-135 Stratotankers at Andersen AFB, Guam, perform an Elephant Walk April 13, 2020. The Elephant Walk showcases their commitment to ensure regional stability throughout the Indo-Pacific.

Not much walking going on when you have wheel chocks on the MQ-4s at the head of the column.

Still impressive.

A great shot of CFB Comox around my time, late 1970s, early 80s. There is one Labrador still in the old paint scheme. I see my barracks, the armorers hut, mess hall etc.

Note the "binary" Voodoo.

Thanks. It's the best photo/angle I have seen to date of Comox. Any time there would be on the ramp:

Voodoos
T-33s
Argus's
Buffaloes
Labradors
Trackers

And visiting aircraft. It was a busy airfield.

This Canadair Tutor (CL-41) took part in the London-Victoria Air Race in July 1971.

Incase you want to put drop tanks on your Tutor/Tebuan.
