N22YX

During a touch-and-go began to oscillate violently for eight seconds before slamming back down onto the runway and slid several thousand feet trailing a shower of sparks. A resulting fire was quickly extinguished. The pilot was fine and never had to eject, but the aircraft was never to fly again and thus ended any test flights with any YF-22.
