First flight for the Lockheed Martin F35C naval version of the fighter jet. OK, you cannot fly the F35 jet fighter as a paying passenger but we wanted to congrat our friend and pilot Jeff Knowles, who flew the F35C for the first time early June. The F35C is the naval variant of the F35 – also called Joint Strike Fighter in reference to the program designed to elect the next generation of fighters and striker aircrafts.
Check the video of the first flight:
The F35 is truly a technological marvel. It will replace the F16, A10 and F18. It is simply faster, more agile, and can fly longer distances. It is designed to be superior to any other aircraft and from what we have seen so far, it is going to be a master of the skies.
Well done Jeff.
