The Canadair CF-5 was the Canadair licensed built version of the American Northrop F-5 Freedom Fighter aircraft primarily for the Canadian Forces.

The Canadian Forces retired the plane in 1995, although CF-5s continued to be used by other countries into the early 21st century. Today this original sits on a pedestal in Trenton Ontario.

  8. I know there's no other way to have them on a stand, but... it sorta looks painful. Beautiful plane.
