PHOTOS: Fairchild honorary commander orientation flight

U.S. Airmen and honorary commanders attend an orientation flight at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, March 6, 2024. Honorary commanders attended a mission brief and orientation flight to view Fairchild AFB’s air refueling mission and capabilities. The honorary commander program pairs local civic leaders with a group or a squadron to gain a deeper insight to the Air Force and Fairchild AFB’s mission to develop well-informed advocates in the Inland Northwest community. The honorary commanders advocate for, advise and collaborate with base leaders to provide connections between Fairchild AFB and the local community.
