Did my first F-16 engine run on this aircraft back in December of 2017 in the hush house at Nellis. It still sported the 'Vegas Strong' paint scheme while doing the high powered run. Grateful to have been the DCC for this jet while assigned to VIPER AMU. Aircraft has been re-assigned to Eglin AFB for the Viper Experimentation and Next-gen Operations Model (VENOM) test program early 2024.

This was my first jet as DCC. I had a thing for replacing every screw I could during inspections. I think the jet got painted twice because of all the brass dots always on display.
