USAF Demos F-16 To Colombian Air Force
A team of five Colombian Air Force officers toured McEntire JNGB as part of a U.S. visit to gather information about F-16 operations and maintenance.
This visit is the latest engagement in the State Partnership Program, or SPP, between South Carolina and the Republic of Colombia. South Carolina and Colombia formally established a bilateral relationship in 2012.
The Colombian team was led by Brig. Gen. Ramses Rueda, an active-duty pilot and director of the Colombian Air Force Officer's Academy.
After receiving a 169th Fighter Wing unit briefing, the Colombian officers went on a tour of the wing’s operations and maintenance groups and had an F-16 avionics demonstration on the flightline.
