Unique aircraft repair saves millions
Over a period of five years, members of the USAF 649th Combat Logistics Support Squadron worked to restore a Virginia Air National Guard F-16 using a new forward fuselage from a Navy F-16N.
The aircraft was damaged when it experienced an involuntary gear retraction in a test flight in Dec. 2000. The aircraft landed without its landing gears.
