    [why the F16A with F100-PW-200 engine must to pull FWD the throttele to full military power and then back to idle only afterwards he can shut down the engine? ]
    After each flight an oil sample is taken from the engine to check for metals etc.
    The advance of the throttle to 75-78% power for 5-10 seconds before shutdown is to scavenge oil.
