Residents near Shaw Air Force Base may notice increased noise activity during evening hours through Oct. 15-18 and 21-25 due to a temporary increase in the number of F-16 flights after sunset. 

These flights provide Shaw F-16 pilots with the opportunity to train with night vision equipment and practice tactics that are critical to survivability in combat.
For more information, contact 2nd Lt. Noelle Caldwell at (803) 895-2019, or the on-call public affairs representative at (803) 895-5850 after regular duty hours.
