| Think they just want to show how maneuvrable the aircraft is. And eh, what when ur outta sidewinders to put up his movable exhaust nozzle and u have to SHOOT him down. I dont think an american aircraft has a chance. Maybe with a skilled pilot?

He also set over 80 world speed and altitude records with the B-1 (he still holds 6). Ya think he's skilled enough?

STORYTIME: I sometimes work with a civilian flight demo team called the "Thunderdelfins," you might of seen some of my posts. All these guys are retired USAF Colonels, etc., etc., between the ages of 60 - 75. As the team was forming, here comes the "young guy" (late 30s, early 40s) with an L-29 who wants to join the team. He has a lot of money and a pretty nice L-29. Thinking this guy was "a little rich kid" they went out and played "press to test" with this "kid." Needless to say he waxed all of them pretty badly. It turned out this "kid" was a former Top Gun flight instructor who flew "aggressor." Talk about a humbling experience!

| Can the F-22 perform this acrobatic maneuvers?, I think so due it variable geometry nozzles, this fighter can do the Cobra and another maneuvers that the Su-35 can do.

| Last week i saw this tv program about the Sukhoi SU37 and 47 Berkut and it looks like a badass aircraft too. It also can pull some weirdo manouvres like the su 35 and probably the f-22 (but as Flyboy said, is it really usable in combat..). But its looks are great! http://www.airforce-technology.com/projects/s37/

It could be worse! - You could collide with your wingman during a European airshow 
, eject, have both aircraft plummet out of the sky into a huge fireball 
, you parachute within feet of spectators, then light up a cig after the whole thing!
