Burner Friday: F-16CJ 79th Fighter Squadron

Jason Hyatt photographed this Lockheed-Martin F-16CJ from the 79th Fighter Squadron taking off from Eielson Air Force Base. Burner Friday!

Good morning, FighterSweep Fans! It is once again BURNER FRIDAY!
Today’s image is brought to us by Jason Hyatt, a very talented aviation photographer and historian based in the Phoenix, AZ area. His shot is of a Lockheed-Martin F-16CJ from the 79th Fighter Squadron taking off from Eielson Air Force Base, just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska.
The “Tigers” are a Wild Weasel squadron with a very rich, proud heritage and the motto of “All For Freedom,” deployed to a Red Flag-Alaska exercise from their home station at Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina.
Have a great weekend!
