    Operation Stronghold - 132nd Joint Ops 21st June 2015

    The stream of the flight is now on Youtube. Processing at the time of this post, but will shortly be available for anyone wanting to watch a 476th flight in action, with human ATC & AWACS provided by the 132nd Virtual Wing.



    Despite having to abort and RTB due to an aries fault, it was a thoroughly enjoyable mission.

    Bugger. I'll have to edit it a bit and then upload again tonight. I guess can cut out the first start up before Aries died the first time around.

    And for those interested in joining the 476th in the future, and those who are awaiting a spot, the above is a prime example of why one of our interview questions is "how would you feel about flying for 2 hours or more and having to RTB without firing a shot".

    Eddie was even kind enough to indulge my questions during the mission, when he wasn't busy of course. Watching some of the nuances during the mission was very informative. Highly recommended. I thought of it as watching from the backseat.
