    A U-2 Dragon Lady assigned to the 9th Reconnaissance Wing prepares to land at night during a training flight March 23, 2021, at Beale Air Force Base, California. The U-2 Dragon Lady is widely accepted as the most difficult aircraft in the world to fly. The bicycle-type landing gear and low-altitude handling characteristics of the U-2 require precise control inputs during landing. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Luis A. Ruiz-Vazquez)
