This is a mission for pilots who love long flights and formation flying.
Today we're going back to basics with just a general formation flight, like we used to do. Fly our planes, practice (close) formation flying and a ton of banter. Don't forget to take your pictures!
We start the flight at Jalalabad and fly S/SW to Dwyer for our first pitstop. Next we fly N/NW to Herat. The last leg brings us back to Jalalabad where we end the flight.
A cool 1000nm flight.
- Tankers are easy-comms

Take-off Directives

Once we are all together we exit the pattern once we are on heading to the next airbase at an altitude of 28k-30k ft.
