This amazing moment was captured by Jonathan Derden during the evening performance of the 2008 NAS Oceana Airshow.

It features a Lockheed-Martin F-22A Raptor flown by then-Major Paul “Max”  Moga, F-22 Demonstration Team pilot, during a high-speed pass with a spectacular sunset in the background.

Happy Friday, everyone!
