Here are some pictures I found on www.f-16.net. Thought I would share. The picture on the bottom left is my old jet I use to crew at Edwards. Couln't find any pictures of my current aircraft. But The frist few in these pictures I have also crewed at one point or another at Edwards. The last picture is just a cool pic of a Burner run while the acft is tied down. <This is alot of fun to be in control of that much power 20k+ LBS of thrust, But it sucks that you are tied to the ground.
