Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

2016 Kirtland Air Show

Kirtland Air Force Base celebrates its 75th anniversary by putting on its first air show in five years.

2016 marks Kirtland Air Force Base’s 75th birthday. To celebrate, the base put on a two-day air show June 4th and 5th. The show featured aircraft from modern fighters to World War II bombers, and just about everything in between. Demonstrations filled the air – including stunt flyers, legacy flights, a skydiving demonstration from Wings of Blue, and even a comedy act from Kyle Franklin.

Food stalls crowded one end of the flight line, while static displays, like two of the Air Force’s largest aircraft, the C-5 and DC-10, filled up the other. On both days the flight line came alive with thousands of spectators as the Air Force put its power on full display.

This air show is the first on Kirtland in five years, and if the participation is any indicator, it may not be the last.
