An F-16 Fighting Falcon prepares to takeoff during a Consolidated Unit Inspection Sept. 20, 2012, at Aviano Air Base, Italy. Aviano is currently a test base for the new “wing-driven” inspections schedule which will help synchronize inspections, assessments and evaluations to allow the base greater flexibility to inspect and fulfill their mission demands while ensuring Airmen are combat-ready at all times.
