That's depressing, that is. I was in the Forces when the 18s came online; Voodoos, 104s and 5s were current when I joined, and there were still a few Clunks in special trim doing real work. I suddenly feel old. And the Sea Kings I worked on are still in service. We got them when I was 3.

That's interesting! I worked at the CSA for awhile as one of my co-op internships and my supervisor would tell stories (mostly horror) about the big purchase of CF-18s and vetting all the code in the flight computer and such.
