John Ezell, left, and Tech. Sgt. Aaron Berry install a safety strap prior to removing a TF-34-100A turbo-fan engine from an A-10 Thunderbolt II at Whiteman Air Force Base, Mo., June 2, 2009. This particular engine, number 5036, set a longevity record for the 442nd Fighter Wing, after 10 years of being installed on the same aircraft, tail-number 605. Ezell is the crew chief for A-10, number 605, and Berry was a crew chief in the 442nd Aircraft Maintenance Squadron before commissioning to become an A-10 pilot. The 442nd is an Air Force Reserve unit based at Whiteman. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Bill Huntington)
