Vekkinho Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 How many Red Flags do happen annually?! I always thought there a single event but now you're saying 9-5 which makes me think is it 5th RF this year? Yeah, please provide pics! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
mvsgas Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Well is not only Red Flag, There is also Green Flag and You have the one happening in Alaska. Within a typical 12-month period more than 1,200 aircraft fly 20,000 plus sorties while training more than 26,750 personnel Green Flag east The 548th Combat Training squadron hosts up to 10 multi-service field exercises each year, training more than 50,000 DoD and international personnel http://www.nellis.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet_print.asp?fsID=4098&page=1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Flag_%28USAF%29 http://www.nellis.af.mil/library/flyingoperations.asp Nellis AFB Red Flag Schedule for fiscal year 2009: · 20 - 31 October 2008 · 26 Jan - 6 Feb 2009 · 23 Feb - 13 Mar 2009 · 13 - 24 Jul 2009 · 24 Aug - 7 Sep 2009 To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

joey45 Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 No UK this year?? oh well. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.
