A Loyal Farewell

The son of Col. Michael Maloney, 910th Airlift Wing commander, marshals in his father after landing from his “fini-flight” at Youngstown Air Reserve Station, Ohio, March 2, 2025. A “fini-flight” is a time-honored tradition of taking one last flight as an Air Force aircrew member before being drenched with water and champagne by friends and family as the member exits the aircraft.
