Flying Demonstrations, Day One

PublishedJuly 09, 2012 Author Dan Stohr

The Air Show affords companies the opportunity to show off their products, and we were able to see a number of great flying demonstrations.

First, the Boeing F/A-18 showed off some fancy maneuvers:

Then a Marine crew put the Bell/Boeing MV-22 Osprey through its paces:

And finally, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner capped the day with its first flight demonstration at an air show in Qatar Airlines livery:
