12,000 hours later, engineer takes final flight
Flight engineers assigned to the 757th Airlift Squadron and their families pose for a photo on May 6, 2020, on the flightline at Youngstown Air Reserve Station. Aircrew members wore Hawaiian attire to honor Senior Master Sgt. Vince Bartlomain, an evaluator flight engineer with the 757th Airlift Squadron, after he completed his final flight. For aircrew members, a final flight as a service member is commonly referred to as a “fini flight.” Bartlomain has spent more than 30 years in the U.S. Air Force Reserve and retires with a total of 12,303.7 flying hours.
