said Tech. Sgt. Jeffery Jones, 372nd TRS F-16 crew chief instruc-
tor. “It’s also a stepping stone to transitioning the program to
Holloman.”
For Engram, who has gone through the program himself, the
graduation is sentimental.
“It’s a bittersweet moment having this be our last class taught
here at Luke, since I went through this course as an F-16 crew
chief in 1995,” he said. “But at the same time, I understand that
in the Air Force we’re constantly changing, and we’re here to do
a job. We’ll be moving the program to Holloman.”
Due to F-16 aircraft availability at Luke, the F-16 MRA pro-
gram is being moved to Holloman AFB, New Mexico. This will
allow room for the F-35 program to come in. The training for F-35
Lightning II crew chiefs is slated to begin in 2017.
