美国空军第82靶机中队(82ATRS)1支队指挥官驾驶 QF-4E 靶机在霍洛曼空军基地滑向跑道,准备进行其第一次 QF-4 单飞,这使得他成为空军最后一个学习飞行 QF-4 靶机的飞行员。(A QF-4 Drone taxis back to its spot on the flight line June 3, 2015 at Holloman Air Force Base, N.M. Lt. Col. Ronald King, incoming 82nd Aerial Target Squadron, Detachment 1 commander, flew the QF-4 for the first time solo, making him the last pilot in the Air Force that learned to fly the QF-4. He was accompanied by James Harkins, a civilian pilot with the 82nd ATRS Det 1, who also served as King’s instructor pilot at the U.S. Air Force Academy in the 1990s and at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz., in the early 2000s.)
