[5xthejoy]

F-22 back online. Can't stop the King. GO USAF.

[Wonkabar007]

@5xthejoy Great news, the free world is a safer place with the Raptor flying above.

[fragmaka]

@Wonkabar007 yeah now u can invade even more countries while u go broke.

[TheShaun1982]

gutted it wasnt flying on the public days, so i missed it. :(

[Wonkabar007]

@TheShaun1982 Trade days a the best days at Farnborough.

[TheShaun1982]

@Wonkabar007 how do i get in there for trade days??

[TheShaun1982]

@Wonkabar007 how do i get there for trade days!!!!

[Wonkabar007]

@TheShaun1982 Its hard because you must have a ticket with your name on it.

[bujoun76]

Im sure the tower operators had their radar systems on but got very little or nothing when the Raptor came in for recovery. Mabey even during the airshow.

[Wonkabar007]

@bujoun76 Yes interesting you mention this, because I heard the Tower talking to the F-22 pilot, and they kept asking him " Where are you holding before display" as if they couldn't see him on radar. I could see him 2 miles to my left.

The future jet for the thunderbirds!!

[umer6675413]

hey can u upload video of pakistan jf17 diplay???plz.u uploaded itx arriving video can u plz?

[Wonkabar007]

@umer6675413 Sorry but the JF-17 did not do a flying display, just a static. China wants the first JF-17 display to be done in China.

[Avionicgenius]

@umer6675413 You'll be disappointed, jf17 has the aerodynamics of a brick

[GOAF2014]

@Avionicgenius HEY THAT'S NOT TRUE

That's an insult to bricks everywhere :)

[BTTOLDSKOOL]

Great video Wonkabar!

[Wonkabar007]

@BTTOLDSKOOL Thanks M8. The farnborough plane spotters, were a great bunch of guys, and there excellent forum gave me lots of info, on where to stand for a good view, and which days the validation displys took place.

[jackkilljoy698]

of course its a fifth generation.... usaf air power

[applmac2009]

american power!!!!!!!

[Hazelwood1996]

it's funny, i saw the F-22 at fairford the weekend before and at the end of the display all you could hear were babies cry their eyes out!!!!

[johnboyaka]

Simply an astonishing aircraft...Relegates all others to the museum..

[TheShaun1982]

was well pissed off this was only on trade days, it needs to go on the public days, i was so looking forward to seeing this, well dissapointed :(

[cthomann]

This was the best display short of the SU27 I have seen in a long time. The Raptor rules my sky.

[BitnikGr]

1:17-1:35 was cool!

[JonEverss]

Will this be displayed at the public display on the weekend?

[Wonkabar007]

@JonEverss Sorry buddy, but Tuesday was the last display, because the Raptors are flying back to USA on Thursday, they have displays to do at home.

[JonEverss]

@Wonkabar007 Well im gutted.. Any idea if they are displaying anything different this weekend? As it's usually been the same old typoon,f16,18 etc etc.. Don't get me wrong they are great displays but it would be nice to see something different.

[Wonkabar007]

@JonEverss I guess the Vulcan will be the star of the show at the weekend.

[V8mose]

@Wonkabar007 It was definately the star of the show today. I live and work at the end of the runway so have seen most of the week's activities and today was a major disappointment. The VULCAN was definitely the star of the show. Loudest and meanest thing they had to offer.

[JonEverss]

@Wonkabar007 Lol, went there today and it wasn't flying as it technical problems. It was a great show anyway.

[mkilner]

wow!!...what a show!

[konst541]

seems F-22 can repeat several figures of MiG-27. Nothing new ...

[EarlMcCrackin]

@konst541 new for an aircraft built with low RCS in mind...

[MkH123]

@konst541 I'd like to see a Mig-27 do that. You probably meant Su-37?

[mogsyman]

Nice video, thanks for sharing :)

[strapioni]

Can it function like a Harrier?

[TheMarabouStork]

@strapioni the F35 can i think

[bobsurgranny]

was this today the 19th july

[michaelmage]

Awesome! Thanks for posting.

[welshlad1982]

beautiful - yet a f'n scary thing! Great vid.

[gazparky1974]

great vid, awsome plane!!!

[raridan1]

Nothing better than a Raptor.

[itsnolimitsgaming]

@raridan1 Agreed =)

[andygoth]

@raridan1 F35 maybe? Raptor is a more egile and faster fighter but the F35 has better sensors and avionics, plus it can hit targets on the ground which the raptor really can't.

[BitnikGr]

@raridan1 In term of supermanuverability? MiG-29OVT, MiG-35, SU-30, SU-35.

In term of warplane? Probably SU-35BM can fight it on even odds. Maybe Rafale can do it too... but its RBE-2 AESA radar possibilities are really unknown, so noone can say for sure.

[ktcanuck]

Nice vid!

[SonnyBey]

Dude thts cool!

[alphab135]

4:24 just..wow
