Survival course shows why flights divert, train over countryside
During an exercise in blackout conditions, fighter, air refueling and special operations aircrew participate in a water survival training course led by U.S. Air Force survival training experts at the Lowestoft College pool in Lowestoft, England, May 22, 2014. Students faced torrential rain, 4-foot waves, simulated lightning and gale-force winds during the class. Harsh sea conditions off the coast of England present a major danger and can force pilots to adjust their training flights to take place in airspace over land, ultimately leading to increased aircraft noise heard by U.K. communities.
