Right, but it's already flown at at least one North American airshow (since I've seen it fly), so this must be different in some way than the ones that have already been flying. So I'm curious what will be different.
- Sebguer 8y agoDifference between doing fly-by and basic maneuvers, and a full-on all-performance show by effectively a stunt team, as best I can tell.

- SteveNuts 8y agoAwesome! I saw the F-35 in Duluth MN and it was the most impressive takeoff I've ever seen, so I'd be really excited to see it again now. Thanks for the info.
- Sebguer 8y agoYeah, I'm kind of bummed because I'll be at Sun n' Fun, which is one of the largest air shows... and only like an hour away from Melbourne, but apparently the F-35 isn't visiting. Hard to justify a drive to Melbourne to JUST watch an F-35.
