How's that brick laying coming?

Why are we still using f-16's for demonstrations? It's a fine aircraft, but well past being a dominant fighter. Aren't the F-22 and F-35 considered better fighters with the added bonus of an extra engine and larger payload.

Not to mention that the need for "fighter" aircraft seems to be diminished with the emergence of drone aircraft. Don't get me wrong...I wish I had your job, but is there a future in flying f-16's?

It's not really entertainment though, as much as it is a recruiting tool. The navy spends millions to put it's commercials on college football games. I just suspect that maybe the writing is on the wall for manned fighter aircraft. Perhaps that's not the future of our AF.
