    Members of the German Air Force Flying Training Center 2nd Maintenance Line remove a crane hook from a recovery harness during a joint crash-recovery exercise of Holloman Air Force Base, N.M., Sept. 14. The exercise entailed placement and positioning of the crane while ensuring 100 percent safety of all crew and equipment. The crane must be positioned to allow the aircraft to be lifted while keeping it from tipping over due to the weight. The GAF FTC, along with the 49th and 849th Aircraft Maintenance Squadrons, participated in the exercise to ensure mission compatibility of both nations, crash-recovery teams, which are on standby 24 hours a day in case of emergency.
