      Swiss Air Force 17 Staffel Falcons, #J-5017, Switzerland, 2010

      In 1997 the Swiss Air Force acquired 26 Boeing F/A-18C Hornets as well as 8 F/A-18Ds. In June 1997 17 Staffel "Falcons" was the first squadron to receive the new aircraft followed by 18 Staffel "Panthers" in the Spring of 1998 and 11 Staffel "Tigers" in 1999. Beginning in 2010 an F/A-18C from Staffels 17 (J-5017) and 18 (J-5018) were painted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Swiss military aviation. From 2010 until 2012 J-5017 was the Solo Display aircraft from Staffel 17 flown by Ralph "Deasy" Knittel.
