Today 29 years ago today, September 7th, 1997 the best date in aviation history! The most feared aircraft in the world today the F-22 Raptor took to the skies for the first time! Interesting fact is the F-22 wasn’t always known as the Raptor, it was the F/A-22 Lightning II early on. I’m so glad they changed it to the Raptor! Here’s to many more years of this beautiful bird gracing the skies.

It’s already?!?!? Here’s two A-10C Thunderbolt IIs that came into Langley earlier this year while I was nearby! It was amazing hearing them TF34-GE-100 engines! The civilian version of those engines are on the CRJ-700/900 series aircraft! Thanks for stopping by Moody Air Force Base to here Joint Base Langley-Eustis !

This weekend was amazing! Started the day off at the at the Steven F Udvar Hazy Center for the Innovation In Flight event. This year theme was Speed (wish more military planes would have shown up since they are the fastest). Huge shout out to the amazing crew on the 777-200 it was nice to see a wide body like that and a lot bigger than the 737 from last year. After that we saw some DC F-16s on display. And finally ended with the Gulfstream and King Air! Then we took the 3 hour journey back down to the Hampton roads area and saw the amazing band ! Thank you to and for inspiring my 7 year old daughter into being a rockstar girl! Y’all killed it!

Did you know today would have been Norma Jeane Dougherty would have been 100 years old today. Now you may be asking why and who is that. Answer: Marilyn Monroe. Now what connection does she have with the picture I’m posting? Answer: she helped build OQ-2/3s during WWII before she was the bombshell she was known for. So today is for you Mrs. Monroe!

Two beautiful birds from the that visited us here in Virginia a couple months ago! The farthest plane is a C295 and the closest is the A400M Atlas. Love the tail art on both of these birds!
