Runtoeat Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 It doesn't get much better than that! Looks like some close formation flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duane Jefts Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 I would be impressed if you filed as "flight of two". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted August 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Hi Al, I'm looking forward to any number that doesn't have an emergency landing in it. Hi Duane, We have 6 CT's on the field. 4 of us fly formation all the time. We take off in twos and add a little more spacing (200-400 yds) when en route to a destination so you don't just have to watch the next guys wings. We fly out of all towered airports in formation as a flight and into them. That just makes the lead do all the talking to towers. Towers love it because it's one radio transmission verses 4-6. The pictures above was at the Copper State Fly-In. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runtoeat Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Ohhhh man. Now Roger's a "Master Star Fighter"! Wow. I think you've now got more titles than the North Korean dictator has! Hey Roger. One question about coming in with multiple aircraft as one flight. Doesn't this cut down the # of take offs and landings that the tower can log in? Our tower guys appreciate any help we can give them for their take off and landing count. If I'm going by a towered Charlie or Delta airport, I'll just drop in and do a touch and go. FAA's watching for any chance they can get to take away airport services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted August 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Hi Dick, I called our tower and they said yes a flight of 2-4 counts as one flight. They said it happens so infrequently for towers that the number is insignificant for the month total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
