We will organize into 2-ships and practice quick rejoins.
Summary:
* Lead flies 300 kts and maintains a left hand turn (recommend using auto-throttle and Barometic Alt hold A/P)
* Wingman flies INTO lead’s turning circle, in any way he/she enjoys
* Wingman positions himself on lead’s 8 o’clock, and tries to keep lead on his own 2 o’clock
* Wingman matches lead’speed (or 10-20 kts more than lead)
* Wingman flies around 1000 feet below, to maintain visual even if he needs to increase the turn
* Rejoin should happen automatically because of the smaller turning circle
* Wingman crosses under, and forms up on the right side
