Who can help me with the dates for the next WTI 2-18 exercise at MCAS Yuma ?

Hi,

AFAIK last week of March until first week of May (last week is FINEX). End date seen as 4th of May. Theoratical phase starts already earlier.....

Cheers,

Oz,

Would the end of April be a good time to catch some flying activity for this exercise? I heard the first few weeks aren't as busy on the flying side.

Morning Trevor,

I heard there are 7 weeks for flying ops. And flying Always starts slow and will intensify during those weeks. I was there in 2016 in 2nd week of April (so 5th week of course) and they flew great (log could be found on this forum).

Will be there myself between April 15th and 27th for some days as well. Be advised they do fly during weekends as well, we had 40 sorties on the saturday and few on the sunday.

Good luck,
Oz
