F-16C Block 40 | [ act] | ||
| I was here when we had only one Block 40 F-16 in the Hounds of Heaven Sq and watched it grow into a FMC Squadron. I felt I learned more about F-111 hunks of junk then F-16's. I watched the last of the F-111's an EF-111's leave for the bone yard! Bye Bye LOL. I got an incentive flight in a F-16 block 40 while on a TDY to Nellis AFB, Nevada, It was totaly awsome! | ||||||

| Worked Phase in the "Yellow" Juvats Dock for the whole year. All the 80th FS F-16's were mine. They were block 30's before they went to Block 40's. Got an Incentive flight in a F-16 Block 30 while on a TDY to Kadena AB, Okinawa Japan, it was bad ass! | ||||||

| Started working in the 22 FS, got pulled to 22 FS Phase Dock, 22 Phase turned into 52 EMS Phase Dock. I worked the Phase dock for 2 3/4 years. The F-16's were Block 50's and again they were all mine. | ||||||

| Work Block 25 F-16's on the flight line here. Do yoy know how you can tell the diffrence between GE engines and PW engines? PW engines are not potty trained... don't forget the bucket! WTF! | ||||||

| After leaving Luke I went to Osan and became the F-16 Cann Man... let this be a warning to everyone... DO NOT become the CANN MAN at Osan AB unless you want to work 20 days straight, 16 hour shifts, with no thanks for your hard work. I was so happy when I left that place. They were block 40 F-16's and I Canned from ALL of them. I did get a Fam flight in an F-16 Block 40... No wait.... I got 2 Fam flights the same day! Nothing like hot pitting! I Also had the great pleasure of seeing the 20mm Gun shoot... rattled the heck out of the cockpit, but kicked ass none the less... Hrumph! | ||||||

| I'm now at Misawa AB, Japan working at Crash Recovery, Transient Alert and F-16 Block 50 Wheel & Tire Shop. It's a good break from the 12 hour shifts and the high Ops tempo of the flight line. I'm very interested in where I'm going for my next base. | ||||||
