I have been up to you know where in alligators and falcons this week. Being the WG-10 and newest Crew Chief, I spend a LOT of time on the line launching and recovering airplanes. And yesterday was a wash for one of them. The Air Force washes it’s airplanes every 180 days. In Navy Air, [...] It was a splendid day here in the Mojave Desert.
