Kamik playing catch-upThe small capital was inundated with a military presence. Is this the future the PMO has in mind for the beautiful arctic?
I still get a thrill watching the F18s roar overhead but best of all is watching them leave the tarmac and in a heartbeat are so far into the sky it seems to defy logic.
From my seaside balcony we had a great view of the airshow on this cloudy day. This time they departed for quite a long while, I wondered if they flew to Arctic Bay and back in the 40 or so minutes they were gone. At top speed they cross the Atlantic in about 3 hrs, can make the trip from Quebec to Newfoundland in well under an hour.
(The images are a little blurry due to the extreme zoom used to capture the vehicles.)
