Here's a narrated demo flight of the F-22 Raptor flying at a Sacramento CA Air Show. An amazing machine!

Maybe it needs a colonoscopy ;-) Pat Perry 456th FIS Edit by MasterOfWeb: I fixed the link by embedding it.

We just returned from Edwards AFB where we attended the 329th FIS Reunion and the Dedication of the Century Series Aircraft.. They have been placed right outside the the Rosamond Gate and they look great. The F 106B is right next to the parking lot and in a good spot for pictures. The tail number is 59-0158 and has a long history with Edwards and NASA. We then went on a million dollar tour of the Flightline and a couple of hangers. We saw the CV 22 Osprey in flight , many F 16s, a few F 15s, and then a close up tour of the F 22 Raptor. Of course, no cameras at that stop, but many mental images. The Pilots briefed us and so did the Maintenance guys. We had a group picture taken, and lets see how long it takes to get a copy.. The pilots briefed us on how the aircraft is controlled in flight , told us about pulling back on the stick until it flys backward, and then Pat posts a video. Now I am a believer. Like a Navy Chief told me when we went TDY to Oceana NAS with F 102s in the 50s, and opened the doors, lowered the rails with a load of six falcons, " Gentlemen, that is what I call modern ordnance" WOW, what a show.

Pat, yea it's here, just not at the click of a button. You can get to it by clicking the URL button above and then mod it a bit. I'll add some spaces here to see if I can actually make the code show up. When you click the URL button you get something like [ url ]www . something . com [ /url ] You can mod that like this, again lots of spaces here to try and make it display: F-22 Raptor flying at a Sacramento CA Air Show[ /url]

Just a tip on showing code folks use the [ code ] insert the BB code intack [/code] BB code. I didn't see it in the menu, but it works. Example:
