Tinker Air Force Base, Okla., jet engine mechanic Justin Curlee and Pratt & Whitney process and methods engineer Jennifer Stover discuss the dynamic nozzle seals on the F135 engine’s augmenter. The engine came to Tinker in the fall as a first whole engine to arrive, signaling the beginning of the new workload here. The engine will help mechanics perfect their skills as they completely disassemble then reassemble it, test it and prepare it for the field. (U.S. Air Force photo Margo Wright)(released)
