Lockheed-Martin F-16 Press to Test Anniversary. October 14, 1947 was a historic date in aviation. On that date, Chuck Yeager broke the sound barrier in the X-1 aircraft at Edwards AFB, CA. Every year since that date, Edwards AFB and the aviation world has celebrated this historic achievement. [F-16C/F-16D]
Edwards AFB hosts their annual Open House in October to coincide with this historic event. On occasion a commemorative paint scheme is applied to an ED aircraft and we have recreated both the 70th and 75th Anniversary schemes on this sheet.
The NF-16D VISTA was originally a Block 30 aircraft. It has undergone many extensive modifications in it's life to include the MATV engine nozzle, software OFP upgrades and other upgrades to facilitate use as a flying qualities testbed for the USAF Test Pilot School.
On 14 June 2021, VISTA received the Skyborg System for Autonomous Control of Simulation (SACS) and was re designated as the X-62A.
The new paint scheme of the X-62A was designed by Mike Machat who is a well known artist with deep ties to the Edwards AFB community.
