A Air Force F-22 Raptor fighter aircraft crew chief speaks with the aircraft's pilot at Holloman Air Force Base, , Sept. 21, 2011, to ensure all of the pre-flight checks are done properly before takeoff. Four Raptors were launched as Holloman's premiere aircraft returns to the sky. An expedient return-to-fly means F-22 crews will return to combat mission readiness. Senior Airman DeAndre Curtiss
