Hey all, I was at the Tyndell AFB airshow last weekend and saw the new and incredibly awesome F-22 there. I have to let you guys know that the F-22 is insanely LOUD! I have seen and been moderatly close to many F-14s and F-15s when they are doing maximum performance take-offs and none of them come even close to the rumble of this thing. The ground literally, and I mean literally, shook when they took off. Anyway I took some pics so here they are. Now you folks can see me mug.
