Tinker engine test cell operators Roy Kniffin, left, and Arthur Anderson prepare the first F117 engine for testing June 13 in the Bldg. 3234 facility. A cell was specifically modified for the engine and Tinker gained Federal Aviation Administration certification to test it. Maintained in the F117 Heavy Maintenance Center of the 76th Propulsion Maintenance Group, the F117 is one of four engines that power the C-17 Globemaster III and can muscle up to 40,000 pounds of thrust.
