omg - I just realised I was talking about the great man not realising it could actually have been Mr.Traven himself replying to my post! In which case , if it is, I would LOVE to try the simulator out! I take it Farnborough will be on next year (2008) ? This isn't some sort of wind up , is it 1pilot18?lol

1pilot18, I live about 7 miles from Farnborough and always enjoy watching Ricardo do his stuff. The man is a talented test pilot. Yes, you're right - he has THE BEST job in the world!

I think Ricardo's from the Canadian AF, but got a gig as a Boeing test pilot.

The commentator was wrong. This plane CLEARLY has ailerons. I saw them working. I am a pilot and I know ailerons when I see them. -GO USAF/NAVY-

If the Super Hornet had thust vectoring its agility would surpass even the X-31 and the MIG-29OVT. Mabey we'll all get lucky one day. I hope that didn't sound to perverted! -LOL-

Ricardo Traven must have one of the best jobs in the world. Nice jet..would love to fly in the backseat of a Superhornet to see what it feels like! I can only dream I suppose.

This Narrator said "this aircraft doesn't have ailerons". Of course it does!!! Look carefully near the wing tips as he turns , you can see the 'ailerons' clearly moving with the tailerons. This guy is talking bollocks. He doesn't know what an 'aileron' is !
