    U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Maurice Young and Senior Airman Clint Keen, both maintainers with the 514th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron, prepare to inspect an engine inlet of a C-17 Globemaster III for a birdstrike, at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, N.J., January 6, 2024. A birdstrike could be detrimental to the proper operation of an aircraft engine because it can cause damage to the high pressure compressor of the engine. A borescope is conducted to examine if damage has occurred.
