Great pics. I was stationed at Fleet Weather Central at Pearl Harbor in 70 when one of the big carriers pulled in and it was our job to deliver the daily weather charts to the ships in the harbor. I walked up the gangway with the charts under my arm, saluted the ensign, requested permission to come aboard and the OOD took my charts away from and told me I would probably get lost trying to find the weather office so I didn't get to explore the ship.

Sorry, but there is no such thing as the F/A-37. Those stills are from the 2005 movie "Stealth". The "aircraft" is a movie prop. Don't believe everything you see on the web.

My cousin sent that to me last year, and I had to point out the obvious. Even if there was an undisclosed to the public aircraft being built, I would probably know about it as we make blades and airfoils for the JSF, and previously did the same for the F-22.

What about the New Yorker? I've seen pictures of it before but for some reason it was painted different?

This was in NY for Fleet Week. The pilot flew this up chasing the carrier up from the south to make sure this made it on board before the carrier hit NY harbor. It flew countless missions in the middle east and was the first time in years it was back. He had to land to refuel and stop due to storms. I think he said the carrier was 20 miles out to sea and he caught it at about Sandy Hook, NJ.

Check out the graphics on it. That's the importance. Normally I don't post pictures of myself because the camera adds 100 Lbs. but I'm the svelte guy in the back 5th in from the right side. Obviously, pilot is 2nd from the right.

Here's a link to the USS New York's home page:

I don't know about the F/A-37 or the movie Stealth, but here is a link to the homepage of a big waste of taxpayer money:
