BrittMac Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 PS: Is it peeling? http://www.airliners.net/photo/USA---Air/L...-22A/1878009/L/ I am thinking along the same lines as the first poster (on the comments section under the pic). It looks like scotch tape to me. Neat pic for sure though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Berkut Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Sorry for double post, but thought it would be most logical to answer here. I don't know if you're interested, but I did take a few photos with my limited camera and skills back then. In this shot, you can barely make out some of the tail numbers, so it might give you a better feel for which aircraft they flew: http://www.techflyer.net/images/edwards2/IMG_5012.jpg This is a shot more from the front: http://www.techflyer.net/images/edwards2/IMG_5011.jpg Thank you, great shots. Interesting historywise as well. :) And that is probably the dirtiest F-22 i have ever seen. But back then, they were a bit more busy than they are these days, so understandable it got some wear: 28 Aug 2002 – To date, the F-22 flight test program has achieved more than 2273 test hours accumulated during more than 1021 test missions.13 Feb 2003 – To date, the Raptors at Edwards AFB have accumulated almost 3000 flight hours during more than 1300 test missions. 24-02-2004 - EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- Maj. Jim Dutton, F/A-22 Combined Test Force pilot, reached the 5,000-hour mark while flying a developmental test mission in the skies over Edwards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_superbug Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Here are some of mine. Taken at Avalon earlier this year, first time that they have come to Australia. Flagship of the 525th 06-4115 and 06-4108 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flagship of the 525th 06-4115 and 06-4108 Did they fly there, or were they on the back of a truck? Nice pics though :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bdt13 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Here are a couple of my shots of the F-22. Nice pics, John! This is the first I've noticed an obvious replacement or touch-up on a Raptor (see the right wing). Does this happen often? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Rather odd. I am pretty sure whole upper part is one piece, so it can't be one panel they have replaced, but a touch up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
