NRG-Vampire Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) http://aviationweek.com/blog/new-photos-chilled-lightning where are the wheels/tires ?:) why they dont test tires in icy conditions as well ? (because those will get the same climate as the fuselage IRL) ah, :doh: that was the VTOL variant, which doesnt need wheels :D Edited January 24, 2015 by NRG-Vampire
Rotorhead Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 On a completely unrelated note, but this part find I very funny: The aircraft is not in the McKinley Climatic Laboratory on the base, which is designed to simulate nearly every possible weather condition on Earth. Of course they cannot say where it is! It's a classified information. :D

outlawal2 Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Yes and Internet wannabes trashing a plane they have never seen, heard, touched, have no real verifiable information about ... Well that is real sexy too! :music_whistling: EDIT: The post that this reply was referring to was removed (In case anyone was scratching their heads) :thumbup: Edited February 5, 2015 by outlawal2 "Pride is a poor substitute for intelligence."

mvsgas Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 where are the wheels/tires ?:) After watching this video I assume they removed the tires to secure the aircraft To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

Tirak Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 After watching this video I assume they removed the tires to secure the aircraft Oh, I see, they were testing the F-35Bs STOVL system in the extreme temperature to see if the system would seize. That makes sense.

Namenlos Ein Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 The arrival of the UK’S first F35 Lighting II Stealth Fighter Aircraft at Edward’s AFB America on the 13th Jan 2015. The 17 (Reserve) Squadron has begun operational testing of the UK’s first F-35B, 100 years after the unit was first established. The squadron, which was first formed in 1915, will be responsible for all the test and evaluation of the UK’s first F-35 Lightning II. The aircraft, known as BK-1, is stationed at Edwards Air Force Base in California and will be operated under UK regulations. Personnel from 17 ® Sqn, which is made up of engineers and pilots from the RAF and Royal Navy, will fly and maintain the jets independently from their US colleagues. This is an important step towards the UK developing its Joint Strike Fighter capability.
FoxHoundELite Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Some guys told me not to trust the media.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2974585/Fighter-jet-Pentagon-s-400-billion-program-unable-carry-highly-advanced-bombs-design-flaw.html Feel the Rush of Superior Air Power [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Weta43 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Watching its movements relative to the clouds behind it - there was either a lot of turbulence, or that aircraft is very twitchy in pitch. Cheers.
mvsgas Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I wonder how many negative news articles we can find about the Apache AH mk1, F-16, F-15, F-18 etc when they where being introduced? To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience.

aaron886 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Watching its movements relative to the clouds behind it - there was either a lot of turbulence, or that aircraft is very twitchy in pitch. Bad video stabilization. Not even remotely like an aircraft pitching.
Weta43 Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Except that the clouds behind are stabilised - the aircraft is jiggling in pitch, which might just be an AP reacting to turbulence, but is happening. Cheers.
FoxHoundELite Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I wonder how many negative news articles we can find about the Apache AH mk1, F-16, F-15, F-18 etc when they where being introduced? they did? Feel the Rush of Superior Air Power [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

mvsgas Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Uhummmmmm... A. Where is the rest of the video? I mean that's only about 5 minutes long... Or was that it? I do not know, you would have to contact the people that uploaded the video, I simply shared it here. B. Do they actually plan to drop weapons from that cute little airplane? :smartass: Nah, The USAF just wants to fly it around to show off to the countries that can't afford it. Why would they put weapons on a weapons systems? Why would they use it in combat? :doh: To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

mvsgas Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 they did? I don't know, that is what I was wondering. Reading the book "Hellfire" by Ed Macy, he seem to portray that the media in the UK was continuously saying how over price the AH1 was ect. I never read does articles and I do not know how to find them. Also I hear how much the F-15 created controversy because of it development cost. But again, I do not know how to find or read archive news articles from when that aircraft was first being introduce. To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience.
