Cool pics beau. We do the formation lights for that and many more here in NH and in NY. And with the F-35, it was all new tech for us as well.

To my the F35 seems like a waste of money compared to the F22 sure it has VTOL but the F22, F15, F16, and F18 are are faster, and I assume more maneuverable (at least the F22 due to its thrust vectoring) although of course I dont know this as I have not flown any of these aircraft. Not bashing anyone or trying to start an argument just voicing my opinion so to speak!  :bolt:  :old:

  I guess you could compare it's cost to other development programs. But costs are going up on everything these days.

  If it's an inferior airframe as some suggest then we should sell as many as possible to other countries. Just give some to China to pay down the debt.  :D

I see the 35 just about every day her at Pax River, I work with guys who just came over from the program and I'd have to say its pretty impressive.  Too bad about the negative press and nay syaers who aren't all that informed.  Even been to the sim...its pretty sweet.
