This photos shows the first flight of the Javelin jet with its retractable undercarriage in the UP position, showing the aircraft’s clean lines.

The flight happened at the Javelin’s base in Colorado, USA on 28 February, five months after the aircraft's maiden flight. ATG, the company developing the joint civilian/military jet, said, “The Javelin prototype’s landing gear was cycled as the aircraft maneuvered between 135 to 180 knots.

"With flaps at 10 degrees, the Javelin test pilot performed 30-degree bank turns while continuing to assess handling qualities which included longitudinal and lateral stability roll, performance and trim effectiveness.”
