US Air Force - AMARC



78-0012.jpg
USAF F-16A block 1 #78-0012 assigned to the 121st FS seen being recieved into AMARC in early 1994. Note the nose high stance of the jet after it had been defueled. This was interesting to see if a pilot came back from a mission very low on fuel. If the NLG extended too far, the NLG WOW (weight on wheels) switch would 'make' and this would cut out NWS (nose wheel steering) and the pilot would find he could no longer turn the jet during taxi.
