Last April, we met the fine folks of the 457th Fighter Squadron. We were invited to visit their facility in Fort Worth and what an experience that was. This was a day I'll never forget. It was a special treat for us to meet this brave and talented pilots. We got to tour their offices, watch of film in the briefing room of the 457th in action, meet the pilots and members of the group, get up close with a F-16C, and then go out the the hold short line and watch the birds returning home. Below is some of the pictures we snapped. |
