U-2 Dragon Lady

A U-2 pilot shakes the hands of the team of maintenance civilians before a flight Sept. 16, 2011, at an air base in Southwest Asia. The pilot was flying the last aircraft inspected by a U-2 phase team from Lockheed Martin Aeronautics at the 380th Air Expeditionary Wing. The U-2 phase team ensures the jet remains in peak flying order and is not out of the fight too long. Inspections are moving to Beale Air Force Base, Calif. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt.
