JOINT BASE BALAD, Iraq -- Staff Sgt. Caesar Rivera and Airman 1st Class Shane Bridges, 332nd Expeditionary Aircraft Maintenance Squadron crew chiefs, communicate back and forth during a test of the leading edge flap as part of a phase inspection on an F-16 Fighting Falcon here, June 18. The flap is responsible for providing additional lift and drag that is critical for movement at slower air speeds. A phase inspection checks critical aircraft systems to ensure they are in working order and can continue to fly combat missions over Iraq. Sergeant Rivera is deployed from Nellis Air Force Base, Nev., and Airman Bridges is deployed from Shaw Air Force Base, S.C. (U.S. Air Force photo/ Senior Airman Julianne Showalter)
