Thank you! 10 years ago, during MF-XXX, I managed to get a round trip on a
417Sqn CT-133 from CFB Cold lake to Victoria Airport on Vancouver Island.
Surely one of the best, if not THE best rides I ever got. Even then this
aircraft still felt more like a fighter than a trainer.

Hi Ron! Awesome. I've never been up in anything other than commercial
aircraft so a flight like that would be a real treat.

When I was running AD arty training in CFB Petawawa in the late '90s, we used
to book T-Bags out of North Bay because they were just about the best
simulated threat aircraft if you wanted FROGFOOTs (FROGFEET?) for Javelin on
LML. They were still the "Whispering Death" of Korea fame.
