The Oregon Air National Guard’s 142nd Fighter Wing will be conducting routine F-15 night flying training tonight through Thursday.
The missions allow the wing to stay current with mandatory Air Force requirements. Night flying is conducted almost monthly as it provides essential training for nighttime maneuvers. Training flights will be completed each evening before 10 p.m.
Since Sept. 11, 2001, the 142nd Fighter Wing has flown more than 47,000 hours in support of the Aerospace Control Alert mission to ensure the Pacific Northwest skies remain safe.
