The CF-18 replaced the CF104 Starfighter at Cold Lake in 1982. This 417 Squadron aircraft was painted for the Squadron stand down in July 1982. Stored at CFB Mountain View, ON it was struck off strength in 1990. Loaned to the Reynolds Alberta Museum in Wetaskiwin, AB during 1995, it was later moved to the Comox Air Force Museum.
