F-35 Lightening II: Episode 2

In this episode of the F-35 Series host Steve Davies from the 10 Percent True podcast continues his discussion with John ‘Press’ Wheeler. Conversation focuses on the F-35A including the mission sets the USAF is employing with the Lightning II and how the advanced systems caused a paradigm shift in pilot training. ‘Press’ brings his unique perspective as being one of the initial cadre of F-35 pilots and the wing commander of one of the two USAF F-35 training wings. ‘Press’ also gives insight on the question everyone asks, the ability to look through the aircraft and it’s utility in combat.
