Although it's been out for a couple of years at this point, I've kept away from military aircraft until very recently. That all ended with the arrival of the OV10 Bronco, the Panavia Tornado, and now the F35. I guess you could say I'm making up for lost time. There's obiously a lot more to learn about the F35, so this is VERY much a "first look" I'm hugely impressed though.

I guess we have to remind ourselves that the systems simulation within this aircraft is almost entirely fictional. It's still great fun though.

Can't wait to take the F35 to both the Mach loop, and the Sidewinder lowlevel route in the US :)

I wrote a checklist to help get started you can download it here:
