U.S. Air Force Brig. Gen. Case Cunningham, 18th Wing commander, climbs out of the cockpit of an F-15 Eagle after his final or fini flight as wing commander at Kadena Air Base, Japan, June 27, 2019. For many aircrew, the fini flight is a way to recognize and honor fellow aviators as one who can now hang their hat with the many Airmen who have gone before them.
