Paul Whidden, a simulator maintenance technician III with True Simulation in Martinsburg, W.Va., takes a ride in the new C-17 simulator at the 167th Airlift Wing, Martinsburg, W.Va. The simulator is used by pilots and loadmasters to practice their skills in a very life-like simulator. The simulator will have the capability in the future to link up with other airframes from other units and go through different flying scenarios. (Air National Guard photo by Staff Sgt.
