Marine Lt. Col. James Wellons, Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron 501 commander, seals his oxygen mask to his helmet before his F-16 sortie at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla., March 18, 2011. The F-16 sorties flown by Marine pilots were the first flights for the VMFAT-501 -- the Marine squadron responsible for training on the F-35B. The flights are designed to familiarize the pilots with an aircraft similar to the F-35 as well as introduce them to the airspace and flightline operations. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
