Oh man, that had to be cool. That is on my bucket list, but one I'll probably never cross off.

Sweet shots, and thanks for your service!

We stayed by the Air Force base in Vegas for SEMA, man watching those jets maneuver just off the flight deck was awesome

did you work on just 1 particular plane or just a fleet of F-15's?

Youthpastor, I have had the pleasure of working on the F-15, F-16, A-10, T-38. The F-15 was by far the most challenging aircraft from a crewchief's standard to work on but the A-10 was my favorite. I worked the A-10 during the first Gulf War and seeing what kind of damage that thing can take and still go out and kill was amazing.
