Surge ops

KUNSAN AIR BASE, Republic of Korea--Two F-16 Fighting Falcons from the 80th Fighter Squadron takes off here at Kunsan AB, ROK. The 8th Fighter Wing tested its flying and maintenance operations during surge operations here May 17. The purpose of the surge operation was to test the skills and wartime capabilities of the operators, maintainers and supporting agencies of the Wolf Pack over a 14-hour window and to simulate pilots' wartime flying rates. A successfully generated flight is considered to be a single sortie. (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Roy Lynch)
