Airmen lift a TF-104G aircraft

Staff Sgt. Wesley Hammond, an aircraft maintenance technician assigned to the 129th Maintenance Squadron, observes a plumb bob that indicates the position and balance of TF-104G aircraft as it is slowly raised by airbags under the aircraft. Airmen from the 129th Rescue Wing conducted a full-scale airbag lift exercise using a TF-104G static display to simulate a downed aircraft at Moffett Federal Airfield, Calif., Mar. 15, 2011.
