San Diego Salute - Formation Flying Team

San Diego Salute - Formation Flying Team San Diego Salute is a group of formation flying pilots available for memorial flights and event flyovers in southern California.

The group is made up of SoCal based pilots flying Western and Eastern-Block single-engine propeller-driven former military aircraft. Flights are conducted in accordance with FAA regulations, typically overflying the service or memorial at 1000 feet above ground level. This is high enough to provide a safe environment but low enough for the formation to be easily seen and heard. A conventional Memo

The formation skills used to conduct these flights are developed in accordance with the Formation And Safety Team (FAST), a global group of civilian organizations, primarily the T-34 Association (www.t-34.com) and the Red Star Pilots Association (www.flyredstar.org). Aircraft
