Lt. Col. John Habbestad, 9th Airlift Squadron commander, observes the surrounding airspace from jump seat during a routine training flight on a Dover Air Force Base C-5M Super Galaxy, over California, June 5, 2021. During a Major Command Service Tail Trainer, pilots and flight engineers were able to fly over the West Coast using visual flight rules. This requires crew members to use ground references to fly, exercising different skill sets not often used in day-to-day operations.
