This latest CD from Aero Research is the first time that the F-18 has been showcased. The disc includes both the legacy Hornet and the Super Hornet. As you'd expect, there are a lot of grey jets in this one, though there are a few nicely colored CAG birds and a few aggressor schemes in here as well.

You get the usual ramp shots with most of the images crisp and clear. There are also some taken at air shows and a few air to air images. The vast majority of these images were taken at NAS Fallon as the author apparently has had good working relations with the PR people there and has had access over the years.

There are 150 images covering 288 megabytes of disc space. Each image has all the information about the aircraft including date and place photographed if it was known. You will find that this disc has the aircraft listed by unit and includes both USN and USMC squadrons.  

Like the other products of Aero Research, this one is a disc of eye candy that will be appreciated by modelers and fans of the aircraft alike.
