Nice video clip, good explanations of what it is doing and why. Quite maneuverable for those "knife fights in a phone-booth" scenarios! 70,000 pounds of thrust...WOW....I was waiting for it to stop in mid air and back up! Air Brakes you know!!! ![]() |

I was driving out to CHina lake and caught one of these guys doing basically this at the same altitude., My friends in the truck with me acted like I was insane when I started yelling and pointing at it. They thought that this stuff was normal. Too many tv shows. |
