I'm a regular 'ol crew chief that's been crewing this damn thing for almost 10 years. My past assignments include Cannon AFB twice and Osan AB, ROK twice. My next stop is Nellis AFB. This is the only jet I've ever worked and just like all of you know, it can be a nightmare or a dream to work on. I'm currently the dedicated Crew Chief on the 7th AF flagship (#90-0710) check out the pics. I'm proud to be in this position and I have the best assistants anybody could ask for.

Current or Favourite assignment

Nothing at all special about the 36th! Let's do some Hot Pits and surge a little!

Deployments

I've been all over the world thanks to this jet. I've been all over Europe, Korea, Canada, various states and Saudi Arabia.

My last Jet at Cannon AFB was #87-0349. This is by far the nicest one I've worked on yet. It looked great and flew like a champ.

This is my most recent jet, #90-0710. It serves as the flagship for 7th AF. It's probably the cleanest jet I've ever been associated with. My assistants do an outstanding job at keeping it looking, and flying great. Thanks Leah, Scire, and Miller. You're the best.
