The F-35 Had A Week Full Of Good And Bad News (Bad news is same old whining about cost and sustainment which is a given until the program matures)

Squeaky Clean

Good News:

While much of the flight operations were designed to familiarize the crew with handling the jet, F-35 pilots were also testing a new helmet. The new helmet will have an organic LED configuration that will help reduce green-glow which makes it difficult for pilots to see certain objects at night, such as lights on the carrier deck or lights on aircraft flying near them. The green glow has been described as looking through a dirty window.
