F-22 Raptor Airshow Demo / California Capital Airshow 2009

The F-22 Raptor flight demonstration at the California Capital Airshow was superb. Great vapor shots enhance the incredibly tight maneuvers. Maj. David "Zeke" Skalicky is the Air Combat Command demo pilot.

F-22 Raptor taxis to the performer "hot side".
The California Capital Airshow 2009 features the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds as the headliner with the weekends show including numerous military and civilian performances. Noteworthy bonuses this year are the F-22 Raptor, B-2 Spirit, and a second jet team, the Patriots. The amount of static displays spread across the ramp is enough to keep aviation enthusiasts walking around for the entire day!

The F-22 Raptor top view during a 90 degree bank angle pass. The Raptor demo was very impressive and the crowd's roar of approval could be heard over the F-22's afterburners.
