I didnt make the Chicago show but the F-22's performance at Oshkosh this year was very impressive also.

If you want to see an impressive F-22 video, you should watch this one...

PS. Yes... the backflip has to be seen to be believed!

The Raptor is an awesome fighting machine! I feel a special connection with the F-22A. We make parts for the radar system. Each and every one of those parts is run across a test station that I built and I maintain! 8)

Cheers!

"OK, so Goose, I'm going to put on the brakes and he'll fly right by. WHAAAAT?'

Can you imagine if we had this technology in WWII? Wow! That Raptor can almost turn itself inside out!

Very cool and what a kick for the pilot. 8)
