B-1B Lancer, 86-0109, taxis toward the parking ramp at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, Oct. 26, 2018, after a ferry flight from Midland International Air and Space Port before induction to depot-level maintenance and upgrades with the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex. During a routine training flight May 1, the Dyess AFB based B-1B had an in-flight emergency resulting in an attempted ejection. The first crewmembers seat failed to deploy and the aircraft commander halted the ejection sequence and heroically saved the aircraft and crew by landing at Midland International Air & Space Port.
