End of an era: Navy’s legacy Hornets to fly off into the sunset
By: Mark D. Faram  
The Navy will say farewell to its last operational F/A-18C Hornet fighter jets in a special ceremony at Naval Air Station Oceana on Feb. 1.
Naval Air Forces Atlantic announced Wednesday that the remaining single-seat, twin-engine, supersonic, all-weather, carrier-capable Hornets will take their last flight with Strike Fighter Squadron 34.
The “Blue Blasters†are the lone Hornet squadron that has not transitioned to Boeing’s F/A-18E Super Hornet.
