Aviation Challenge - Mach III

Mach III missions challenge trainees with freedom of control, requiring them to think about maneuvers in all three rotational-axes of flight as they take on the most advanced flight simulations, engineering principles, and leadership responsibilities.

Field training is focused on discipline and attention to detail in survival situations. A night Field Training Exercise (FTX) requires teams to work together to recover intelligence or rescue a downed pilot. Communication is paramount as everything is taken to the next level in Mach III.

Brave the centrifuge, the 150-ft. zip line*, and all of our training simulators!
Reinforce leadership, teamwork, and decision-making skills in our immersive F-18 cockpit simulators.
