Boeing F-22A Raptor
United States Air Force
Avalon Airshow 2011 / 2013

The F-22A Raptor was certainly a welcome vistor to the 2011 Avalon Airshow where it was on static display. In 2013 it was the star of the show, when, on each of the 3 public days it performed a spectacular flying display. Having a chance to see live what a thrust vectoring aircraft is capable of (even if it was not the full flight envelope) was pretty impressive.
