Nudge

U.S. Air Force Airman 1st Class Daniel Terrazas, 23d Component Maintenance Squadron aerospace propulsion journeyman, nudges an A-10C Thunderbolt II TF34 engine into place on its stand at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., Feb. 21, 2014. Running the engine in place allows for gradual wear on new parts so they will be better adapted for rapid acceleration and deceleration while onboard an aircraft.
