Student pilots’ first time soaring in F-35 through allied F-35 B-course

U.S. Air Force Capt. Roland Neal, 62nd Fighter Squadron fighter pilot student, prepares for his first flight in the F-35A Lightning II Oct. 1, 2019, at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz. Four student pilots, two U.S and two Norwegian, are attending the eight-month first-ever allied F-35 B-course, preparing for Red Flag at Nellis AFB, Nev. Red Flag is an annual exercise in which student pilots experience realistic combat simulations. The 62nd FS activated in January 2015 at Luke Air Force Base as a joint international effort between Italy, Norway and the United States for F-35 training.
