Red River Valley Amateur Radio Club
Amateur Radio in and around the Red River Valley Area of Northeast Texas
All,
Good Sunday morning! What better way to wake up than to get a cup of coffee and then click the link (here) and watch a batch of F22 Raptors take off, followed by a gaggle of F35 Lightnings! And for comparison, click this link (here) and watch a really nice video What it’s like to fly the mighty P-51 Mustang! To me the P-51 is one of the coolest planes ever, but watching the F22’s and F35’s take off and go into the vertical; here’s a fun fact: The F22 can go into the vertical and continue accelerating in a vertical climb through 60,000-70,000′ (depending on weight and other considerations like external stores) altitude!
Enjoy,
Phillip Beall (W5EBC)
