Although this was the ninth time I have been requested to photograph a "Last Flight" celebration at NAS Fallon, this was the first time the pilot being honored has flown an F-5 for their Last Flight, and that meant that "Coochie's" Last Flight was a sort of "milestone" for me also: I have now photographed Last Flights in every type of VFC-13 "Fighting Saints" jets (F-5s, F-16s, and F-18s) as well as in F-22s and F-35s. My goals now: Last Flights in an E2 and in a Seahawk.
