Quick question on flight profiles...

I know it's been brought up before, but with the Tbird season starting today I just wanted to check if Maj. Weeks will still be flying the same profile as Lead Solo as she did as Opposing with the sneak pass, overtake, 5-card, etc... or does she take over Maj. Casey's profile?

Hah, thanks in advance. I just couldnt remember how it worked.

Yes and no (in that order), to answer your question(s). ;)

Thanks LD! That's what I thought. I just wasnt 100% sure.

Np.

To clarify: If you enter as a Right Solo, as Maj. Weeks did, you stay a Right Solo for the full tour on the team and the same is true if you start out as a Left Solo, you'd retain this profile between seasons. The maneuvers are also tied to either the left or right profile. This, however, is not the case with the Blue Angels which is one reason why it gets a little confusing at times for those not in the thick of air shows...
