Great jet, flew a lot without problems only once we have to change the adgb (auxiliary drive gearbox) which was a very rare job because it happend not very often.

At 311 Sqn all the crewchiefs had different F-16s to work on. everyone tries to get to work on his plane and in his shelter, but this wasn't happening very much at that time.
