Not a Scooter ...But Very Cool Video of the F-35B

This video link is fresh (for the public). It was made just six weeks ago in the Atlantic, just off Newport News ( Hampton Roads), Virginia .These are the latest sea trials of the F-35B on the USS Wasp. They were very successful, with 74 VL's and STO's in a three week period.

The aircraft is also stealth, and super-sonic.

The test flights on USS Wasp. (you said that - doh!)

The only thing you missed after 'stealth' and 'super-sonic' was VERY Expensive!!!!!!

It's one awesome aircraft though.

Dang it Doug,

I really wanted one of these until you started talking about the money thing. Well look at it this way...Me and the rest of the TAX payers here, own this plane!

You would think they would give us old Tax paying veterans a ride in it someday!!!!

Didn't think a Harrier replacement would be as successful but methinks this will be!

I'd stick my name on the flight list for a ride in one of those beauties!

We are getting the F-35 Air Force model here at Luke AFB in Glendale, Az. Luke AFB was selected to be the training base for the F-35, only problem it is supposed to be twice as loud as the F-16, like they say it is the sound of freedom. God bless our troops. Robert...Navy veteran 1960-1964.
