First F-22 Slated for Pacific Rolls Out
Air Force Print News October 20, 2006



Marietta, GA. - Lockheed Martin rolled out the first combat-capable F-22 Raptor Oct. 16 destined for basing and operations in the Pacific Rim.

Raptor 5087 completed its final assembly, with Air Force leaders from Alaska and Lockheed Martin employees on hand to mark the event outside the production line in Marietta.

"Today's F-22 roll out marks another significant milestone for the F-22 program," said Nick Cessario, vice president and F-22 program deputy general manager. "The Raptor industrial team is proud to continue to produce this revolutionary 5th generation stealth fighter for the United States Air Force."

Speaking before Lockheed Martin F-22 production employees, Brig. Gen. Herbert J. Carlisle, commander of the 3rd Wing at Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska, said, "Great Americans wear all kinds of clothes. Some wear military uniforms, some wear suits and ties, while others wear blue jeans and t-shirts while they build the F-22. You are all great Americans and I thank you."

The Blue Angels’ mission is to enhance Navy and Marine Corps recruiting efforts and to represent the naval service to the United States, its elected leadership and foreign nations. The Blue Angels serve as positive role models and goodwill ambassadors for the U. S. Navy and Marine Corps.

A Blue Angels flight demonstration exhibits choreographed refinements of skills possessed by all naval aviators. It includes the graceful aerobatic maneuvers of the four-plane Diamond Formation, in concert with the fast-paced, high-performance maneuvers of its two Solo Pilots. Finally, the team illustrates the pinnacle of precision flying, performing maneuvers locked as a unit in the renowned, six-jet Delta Formation.

The team is stationed at Forrest Sherman Field, Naval Air Station Pensacola, Florida, during the show season. However, the squadron spends January through March training pilots and new team members at Naval Air Facility El Centro, California.

The Blue Angels are scheduled to fly nearly 68 air shows at 35 locations in the United States during the 2006 season.

Last season brought out more than 17 million spectators. Since its inception in 1946, the Blue Angels have performed for more than 414 million fans.

Tomcats Officially Retire - September 26, 2006

Virginia Beach, VA. - The F-14 Tomcat was officially retired after 36 years of service at the Final Flight Ceremony held at Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana Sept. 22.

More than 1,300 former and present F-14 aviators, maintainers, and support personnel attended the ceremony.

“The Tomcat helped maintain freedom and democracy around the world,” said Aviation Support Equipment Technician 2nd Class Christopher Kaelin, a support equipment maintainer with Aircraft Intermediate Maintenance Department (AIMD). “When you see it come off the flight deck, you know it’s a force to be reckoned with.”

According to Corporate Vice President and President of Northrop Grumman Integrated Systems Scott Seymour, the Final Flight Ceremony is as much a dedication to the aircraft as to the people who contributed to its legacy.

“We are here to salute the vision that conceived the aircraft,” Seymour said, “as well as the intellectual capital that engineered it, the pride of those who built it and the dedication of the Sailors who have maintained it and the raw courage and icy nerve of the flight crews that flew it in defense of our country.”

Seymour said although the F-14 is being retired, the human qualities that brought it about are still as vital as ever.

The Navy’s new F/A-18E/F “Super Hornet” will replace the F-14.

“The Tomcat lives on to its enduring mission and to the men and women committed to those missions,” said Adm. John Nathman, commander, U.S. Fleet Forces Command. “It’s a transition from one superb aircraft to another; the Tomcat to the Super Hornet.”

A small number of F-14s will be departing NAS Oceana through Sept. 30 to their final destinations at museums or be placed in war reserve at Davis Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz.

To further recognize the F-14 retirement, Virginia Beach Mayor Meyera E. Oberndorf publicly dedicated Sept. 22 as “Tomcat Day” in Virginia Beach.

“We love the Navy,” Oberndorf said. “And today, the Tomcat is at the top of the list.”
