Default VFA-27 CAG F/A-18E PHOTOS

I need photos of this aircraft & hope somebody can direct me to a source on the internet. I am part of a team building an F/A-18E
for scale competion and we would like to do this aircraft as it has a great scheme - little did we know how few photos of it we would find - 2 to date - we do have full details of the scheme from the Hasegawa plastic kit. Also almost impossible to find a good 3-view of a decent size for documentation - can anyone help here?
Any help greatly appreciated.

PS -tried to e-m the public relat officer at the squadron but my e-m kept getting returned - maybe restricted access to navy/mil e-m to us foreigners.

Thank you so much Countryboy - they are exactly what I need. I tried searches on the net for hours before asking but I must have used the wrong key-words - novice issue I guess.
Anyway I really appreciate your kindness in taking the time to assist me -thank you again.

Still need help with a 3-view/schematic if at all possible. The only ones I can find are too little or too basic or from an un-substantiable source such as a model kit instruction.

I have also searched for 3 views of the F-18E/F with no luck. I ended up buying a 1/48 scale F-18E from Revell to use for panel line and rivet layout on my F model.

You would think that there would be plenty of info about such a significant front-line aircraft. Maybe it's still too new as there seems to be plenty of stuff incl 3-views available for the Hornet. Oh well the search continues!
