F-16 Engine Start-Up: Airman Diligently Prepares A Fighting Falcon For Another Thunderous Take-Off.

This brief video provides an endearing insight into the trust and teamwork found between a pilot and his ground-crew.

Official release: Airman 1st Class Joe Pearson preparing an F-16 for launch during a NATO exercise in Albacete, Spain.

At Hill Air Force Base, Utah, airmen from the active-duty 388th Fighter Wing and Reserve 419th Fighter Wing work side by side. Airman 1st Class Joe Pearson is an active-duty F-16 crew chief dedicated to a Reserve fighter jet.

Pearson was one of roughly 200 active and reserve airmen who deployed to Spain in support of a NATO training exercise, marking both his first and last deployment with the F-16 Fighting Falcon.

As Hill Air Force Base completes its transition from the F-16 to the F-35 Pearson will transfer his skills to the new fighter.
