Aircraft repaired, ready to fly
An F-16 that was damaged during a crash has returned to its owner, the 388th Fighter Wing after two years of maintenance work and $1.1 million.
The returned aircraft is one of two F-16s belonging to the 388 FW’s 421st Fighter Squadron that were damaged during a 2003 deployment. After losing hydraulic pressure and control, the first aircraft impacted a parked aircraft on the tarmac of an air base in southwest Asia.
