that Video that Doug posted on the front page is just sick. Maneuverability of the Raptor is unbelievable. Even moreso when you realize how large of a plane it actually is (bigger than an F15). Just another reason I'm glad I'm on our side.

Looking to build an RV-10 or -14 when the Army stops sending me around the world (Korea bound for the next 3 years!).
I went to the Sacramento air show yesterday, saw the Raptor flying the same routine as in the video.
Pretty amazing it was.
Heritage flight was Raptor, F-15, and a P-51. The three of them made a number of passes---------the 22 and the 15 are not much different in size, but both really dwarf the P-51.
