Please join us in congratulating ROOK on the successful completion of IFF and his assignment to the 8th vFS Black Sheep, where he will begin IQT in the F-16C.
ROOK’s IFF journey was not measured in sorties, checkrides, or calendar months, but rather in geologic time. After more than a year of persistence, patience, and occasional proof-of-life updates, he has officially crossed the finish line and earned his place in the Viper pipeline.
In all seriousness, ROOK has shown the dedication and attitude we expect from a 455 vAEW pilot, and we’re excited to see him continue his development with the Black Sheep.
