U-2 continues through generations, makes Air Force history breaking 30,000-hour barrier in fight against ISIS

U-2 pilot Maj. Ryan completes a pre-flight tradition of greeting the aircraft before flying a sortie in support of Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve at an undisclosed location in Southwest Asia, Feb. 2, 2017. During the sortie, the aircraft completed 30,000 hours of flight. This marked the second U-2 in the USAF fleet to reach the milestone and the first overall while flying expeditionary missions under Air Force Central Command.
