    2nd Lt. Sean Jao and 2nd Lt. Tucker Jacobs, student pilots from Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training class 20-05, simulate the parachute dragging a pilot on a windy day as they pull a fellow student across the yard on Jan. 17, 2019, at Laughlin Air Force Base, Texas, while Airman 1st Class Rachel Fullerton, 47th Aerospace Operational and Physiology Training Unit technician, directs the class. “I think the students enjoy AOPTU training because they’re excited to start flying, and because we have really good instructors,” said Master Sgt. Carlos Rivera, AOPTU flight chief. “They seem to like the hands-on training environment we have here.” (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Anne McCready)
