Like Fine Wine, Getting Better With AGE

UNDISCLOSED LOCATION - It’s the minute details of tasks that make what Airmen do so vital to accomplishing their mission. For the Aerospace Ground Equipment flight, these details have a profound impact on flight line operations each day.

“We support, maintain and repair aerospace ground equipment,” said Staff Sgt. Nicholas, AGE assistant floor lead. “We support anything [maintainers] need to work on, maintain and test the aircraft while it is on the ground.”

Affectionately known on the flightline as the ‘Jiffy Lube’ Airmen who put air in tires and change oil, there is more to AGE than most realize.

“We provide the vital support to the flightline to sustain all the operation that go on out there,” said Master Sgt. Steven, AGE flight chief. “Whether it is stands for people to do maintenance on the aircraft or generators to be able to power up systems, AGE plays an integral role.”
