Peter "Wizzer" Wilson, BAE test pilot at the F-35 Pax River Integrated Test Force, performs a vertical landing Aug. 15, 2018, at NAS Patuxent River with an F-35B test jet as part of the workups to prepare for First of Class Flight Trials (Fixed Wing) aboard HMS Queen Elizabeth.
Around 200 supporting staff from the ITF, including pilots, engineers, maintainers and data analysts, will take two F-35Bs test aircraft aboard to evaluate the fifth-generation aircraft performance and integration with Royal Navy’s newest aircraft carrier this fall. This fixed wing test period brings the U.K. one step closer to carrier strike capabilities. U.S. Navy photo by Arnel Parker
