Simulator shows how impressive F-35 can be

Friday, July 23, 2010

Dear editor:

I would like to thank Lockheed Martin for bringing the F-35 simulator to Mountain Home.

I had flown F-111 and F-15 simulators in the past and worked on the premier state-of-the art aircraft, so I don't think I'm easily impressed by an aircraft, but the F-35 WOWed me.

The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and eager to share non-classified information. I asked a sensitive question or two and was gently led back to other areas. What a wonderful afternoon and experience.

THANK YOU, Lockheed Martin.

Chuck Devol, USAF (ret.)
