Are you sure this is a "D" and not a "B" - it is ANG.

Nice 1 of my favs

I always wanted to know- what's the purpose of the second seat?

[PchanStitch]

@GrayLeader2184 It's for the instructor. The two-seat models are primarily used to train new pilots.

I don't think I've ever noticed an F-16 jostling and rolling as a pilot climbed in.

@PchanStitch "I don't think I've ever noticed an F-16 jostling and rolling as a pilot climbed in."

Neither had I. It goes to show and small and cute the thing is. There's a video on here called 'f16 superlativo", towards the start you'll see him taxiing from the cockpit and it's obvious in that one just how close to the front they're sat.
