After wowing the crowds with the inverted take offs, aerobatics, and landings, Craig Hosking earned the Art Scholl Award for Showmanship by the International Council of Air Shows in 1988.

In 1986, the Canadian Forces were just getting their first CF-18 Hornets and saying goodbye to the CF-101 Voodoo.

Sean D. Tucker discusses the design of the Oracle Challenger. The key focus in the design process is speed.
