Jmcquate: Yes I think the F-35 on the picture was a model only. There were, however, two F-35s on NFW (ref. the airshow speaker). They flew testflights friday, sat. and sunday and were not a part of the airshow. On sunday one of them departed for some Air Force Base somewhere. It was windy both days so the speaker was not easy to hear from the P-3 static display where I was kind of stuck for most of the time. - At least when the JSF flew.

And I was in a head over by the Marine KC-130s, a hanger I use to work in a few years back.

That makes sence. What was the best question you got about the MAD boom?

I did not get a lot of good questions about the MAD boom, but if I were to write a list of "Frequently Asked Questions" it would contain:

1 - "Sooo... Does this aircraft still fly/is this aircraft still in service"?
2 - "Really?" Followed by "Wow"

You should have told the people, "Nope, we pushed it here by hand." Oddly enough we sent one back to Greenville on a truck this week. It was kind of a sad sight to see.
