 Clemson University head football coach Tommy Bowden got a unique view of the stadium of archrival University of South Carolina during his May orientation flight in the backseat of a 169th Fighter Wing F-16D.
 His South Carolina Air National Guard pilot on the orientation flight was Capt. Rick Noble, a Clemson graduate.
 Country musician Clint Black received an F-16 orientation flight in April with the 149th FW, a Texas Air Guard F-16 unit at Kelly Field Annex in San Antonio. NASCAR driver Greg Biffle received a flight in April with the 187th FW, an Alabama Air Guard unit at Dannelly Field in Montgomery.
