Col. Christopher Sage, 366th Operations Group commander at Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, prepares to taxi his F-15E Strike Eagle for the first flight in the base’s expanded aerial training range, July 26, 2012. The Mountain Home Range Complex is now more than 2,000 square miles larger and has a lower airspace floor that will allow the base’s F-15Es and other aircraft to train more realistically, according to base officials.
