Officials temporarily closed one of the runways at Portland International Airport in Portland, Ore., after a tire on an Oregon Air National Guard F-15 blew out upon the aircraft’s landing, reported USA Today. The incident happened on Wednesday during the 142nd Fighter Wing’s night-flying exercises. Crews cleaned up debris and there were no injuries; nor was there any disruption to commercial air traffic, according to the report.
The Air Force wants to promote working out, healthy eating habits, and a holistic approach to well-being for both Airmen and Guardians as part of a new “Culture of Fitness” initiative announced Sept. 18.
