    U.S Air Force 9th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron maintainers prepare TU-2S Dragon Lady 1078 for its first high flight after almost three years of maintenance at Beale Air Force Base, California, Feb. 22, 2024. Aircraft 1078 was involved in an accident in 2021 that left it unable to move to U.S. Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, California, where normal Program Depot-level Maintenance for U-2’s occur, and after passing low flight and high flight tests, will be able to fly to Palmdale to be painted black and returned to service.
