Raptor Sunset
A few weeks ago, the Hawai‘i Air National Guard's 199th Fighter Squadron received their first two Lockheed-Martin F-22A Raptors. To show the fighter's capabilities, the 199th held a demonstration practice on the west side of O‘ahu a day before the blessing ceremony. Show center was a mile off-shore, and abeam the ‘Ihilani Resort.
A friend had told me about the flight demo, and Kat & I had ventured down to Ko 'Olina's Lagoon 4 to watch the performance. We were amazed with the jet's capabilities. The F-22A can be seen below the top center cloud.
