33 FW wheels up at Checkered Flag
A pilot from the 58th Fighter Squadron shows pride for the Squadron’s mascot, the Gorillas, before taking off to “fight” in exercise Checkered Flag Dec. 8, 2016, at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida. The 33d Fighter Wing deployed six F-35A Lightning II and 95 personnel to Checkered Flag 17-1. Checkered Flag is a combat rehearsal where 15 aircraft platforms take to the skies to fly realistic and large-scale operations to prepare for contingency operations. Specifically, this exercise tested the range of capabilities for the F-35A and the 33 FW student and instructor pilots, maintainers, air battle managers and intel by operating from two locations.
