What's happening

"F-35C Sea Trials

Next week, the F-35C begins testing aboard the USS George
Washington for its third at-sea period. There are seven
F-35Cs catching the wire next week, making this the largest
contingent of F-35Cs to operate aboard a CVN. The plan is to
continue envelope expansion testing with two F-35Cs from
NAS Patuxent River, Maryland, and five from the VFA-101
Grim Reapers, based at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida. During
these trials, the Grim Reapers will accomplish the first-ever
squadron-pilot carrier qualifications of 12 F-35C U.S. Navy
pilots. We have a team on board set to capture all of the
action as it happens. You can follow along next week at
F35.com."
