Bio: The 1st American Volunteer Group (AVG) of the Chinese Air Forces in 1941–1942, famously nicknamed the Flying Tigers, was composed of pilots from the United States Army (USAAF), Navy (USN), and Marine Corps (USMC), recruited under presidential authority and commanded by Claire Lee Chennault. The ground crew and headquarters staff were likewise mostly recruited from the U.S. military, along with some civilians.

"Attention Tiger's Attention"
I had a couple questions about the Starburst Maneuver so I added some extra details to the side view drawing to better explain what we're going to perform tonight. The side view drawing represents Flight 5 on the left and Flight 2 on the right. If you look at the over head view it shows our 5 Flights coming toward the center at 72 Degree increments of the compass. Each flight enters and exits along the same axis. At the top of the climb, we execute a reverse 1/2 Loop while maintaining the angle each flight enters the maneuver. Immediately after the 1/2 Loop we execute a 1/2 Roll so our Vipers are facing the correct direction to exit the maneuver along the same axis. I hope this clarifies the Starburst Maneuver for everyone of our pilots.
SO SAY WE ALL! ! ! ! !
Roger that Actual!!!!!!
Welcome back Reamer! I believe I can speak for the whole entire Raven Crew that it is good to have one of your own back once again.
I got your email and although I have not been able to respond back, my answer will be is that I will be there. I don't know how much I will be able to participate because I will be sitting at the Raven CIC so I can update myself with what has been going. However, I will be watching to make sure you guys complete your mission today. :-) Good hunting today!!!!!!!!
