What is Your Path?

The F-14 was a symbol of American air power and was renowned for its variable-sweep wing design and impressive performance. It was featured prominently in movies like “Top Gun,” which further amplified its cool factor and prestige.

It is the combination of advanced technology, thrilling flying experiences, prestigious status, and the camaraderie among the crew made being an F-14 pilot or RIO a highly coveted and esteemed position.

A strong squadron is created one way.

Training Overview

At our core we're here to have fun but our approach to our squadron is based on a continuing training regimen that starts when a new pilot or RIO first joins the squadron. We have a comprehensive training program that is designed to continually improve your mastery of the F-14
