Jan. 06 2024
This is a mission for pilots who love long flights and formation flying.
Starting from Mnt. Pleasant (TNC 19x) we'll fly South-West (angels 30) towards Ushuaia (TCN 13x), which is roughly a 360nm flight.
On the way we will join a group of 5 B-1B bombers, also flying to Ushaia where they will land. They already took off and made their way up to 30000ft @ 460kn, heading South-West. The flight is long so a great time to make some selfies.
After refueling at Ushuaia we'll head up North towards Aerodromo O'Higgins (TCN 16x), which is a roughly a 420nm flight. We have the choice to make this a low level flight and, if needed, refuel at El Calafate (TCN 15x) (roughly 300nm), or go back up to angels 32-36.
After topping up our tanks at Aerodromo O'Higgins we'll head East towards San Julian (TCN 17x), roughly 200nm, where we will not land but turn South towards Rio Grande (TCN 12x), which is roughly a 260nm flight.
All together around a 1250nm flight. This flight has no enemies.
A bit of extra landing practice is never a bad thing, but we have a total of 3 tankers up in the air if you want to A2A refuel. We have Texaco (TCN 22x) and Arco (TCN 23x) in the South and Shell (TCN 24x) up North.
Please note that in-game you will find that the Russian planes are red. Do not mind this, we're all flying together. You can only join this flight here on the 'blue' side but in-game you will choose your aircraft from the red side. We all fly as blue.
Be aware that not every aircraft has a slot on every airbase we pass.
Once we are all together we exit the pattern once we are on heading to the next airbase at an altitude of 32000-36000ft.
