Topic: "Mid-Air Collision Avoidance (MACA)"

 

Chris and Brian will discuss the missions of the 910th Air Lift Wing, what they fly, where they go, and they types of operations they conduct.  Since they operate at low level, they are genuinely interested in sharing Mid-Air Collision Avoidance information with the general public.  If you've ever heard the callsign "Vader" these are the guys!  Come "jump into the cockpit", hear what it's like to fly their missions, and learn how to safely share the skies!
