Edwards celebrates Global Hawk's 10-year birthday
The Global Hawk unmanned aerial vehicle lands here Feb. 28 after an eight-hour mission. The flight marked the 10th anniversary of the Global Hawk's first flight where the aircraft flew for one hour and reached an altitude of 32,000 feet above Edwards skies. Today, the Global Hawk has logged more than 20,000 flight hours, of which 15,000 were flown supporting warfighters in the Global War on Terror. (Air Force photo by Jim Shryne)
