Intro

Aviano Air Base is a military airport in northeastern Italy, in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. It is located in the Aviano municipality, at the foot of the Carnic Pre-Alps or Southern Carnic Alps, about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) from the city of Pordenone.

The Italian Air Force has ownership; it has also administrative and military control of the base. It hosts the U.S. Air Force's 31st Fighter Wing.

The 31st FW is the only U.S. fighter wing south of the Alps and maintains two F-16 fighter squadrons, the 555th Fighter Squadron and the 510th FS.

The Airport hosts also the 56th Rescue Squadron. It operates HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters conducting search and rescue missions.

SCENARIO

Mission scenario will be based on a downed aircraft, your main task is to find the pilot and to recover him from enemy territory.

Coordinates of the Landing site will be released during Mission briefing.

All the events will be conducted within JOLLY area.



PAG. 14 OF 18

LOW LEVEL NAVIGATION (BOAT) The BOAT rules apply to very low-altitude military flight activity performed at 2000ft AGL or below. Unless prior authorization from the ATC/ATS units responsible, BOAT activity is allowed:
