Today's mission is a familiarization flight around the NTTR. We will fly the typical routes to and from the range and review the range check in and check out procedures. I will highlight significant landmarks to aid your navigation. I'll lead the takeoff but once airborne you will takeover as flight lead so you can concentrate on learning the routes and area. Maintain 400 knots throughout the flight so we won't have to tank. I will see you on the flight line.
