    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Oh YESSSSSSSSS, now that what im talking about....This is just fantastic!

    Forget the F-22 it looks like the twin of the YF-23! The design that unfortunately lost out out to the F-22 program. Visually its infinitely better looking that the F-22 could ever hope to be! Thats one NICE looking aircraft. Fred your vid failed to load but here is one from Youtube. I hope I will have an opportunity to photograph this aircraft at some point!


    Man the placement of the gear, engine intakes and the wing shape is just perfect! I look forward to seeing this beautiful fully painted in ghost grey and Aggressor Camouflage.

    Here is a shot of the YF-23

    From a spotters POV I do think this one is a bit more aesthetically pleasing than the Raptor.
