Capt. Billy Ross, an F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot assigned to the 180th Fighter Wing, Ohio Air National Guard, straps himself into his fighter jet before a training sortie, Feb. 1, 2019 at Patrick Air Force base, Florida. The 180FW deployed more than 130 Airmen and 10 F-16s to Patrick, Jan. 25 through Feb. 9, 2019, in an effort to enhance flying operations and readiness capabilities that can often be hindered by harsh winter weather at home-station in Northwest Ohio.
