Default KFFC Formation Team Practice

We took the opportunity to fly before the Georgia Corvid-19 lockdown began. 14 RV's in all. Perfect evening to fly...
An aviation/photography enthusiast who happened to drive by took some nice photos (used with permission)

Pretty impressive spacing and station keeping. Not as easy thing to accomplish.

Very nice. I'm based about a 25 minute flight away from KFFC. I'm very interested in learning formation flying. When all this COVID stuff has passed, are their any local formation flight clinics that might be available?

Thanks, Jim
We have a very active formation training program here for local RV pilots and periodically host formation ground schools. We train to FFI.AERO national standards. Come fly with us when things get back to normal! In the meantime, please visit our web site. Thanks for your interest.
