Wingman Executive The Mission

Detailed proposal · Dubai

For your review

One day inside a fighter squadron.

The Mission is a private, full-day F/A-18 experience for four to six senior leaders. Everyone trains, receives a cockpit role, flies a simulated combat mission and contributes to the squadron task.

The day ends with a structured mission debrief and a practical discussion about how the team makes decisions when the picture is incomplete and the pressure is real.

Your day in the squadron

The complete experience, segment by segment.

Training, briefing, flying, squadron operations and debrief form one continuous day. Lunch and refreshments remain available while the squadron is operating.

  1. 01

    Join the squadron

    Meet in the private squadron room for coffee, callsigns and the opening orientation. The team then moves together to the simulators inside Central Plaza.

  2. 02

    Qualify to fly

    Every participant receives hands-on training in a networked, full-motion F/A-18 simulator. No previous flying or gaming experience is required.

    First rotationUp to three train

    The rest of the team watches and gets familiar with the aircraft.

    Second rotationThe groups reverse

    By 11:00, every participant has completed hands-on training.

  3. 03

    Receive the mission

    The team regroups for role allocation and the live mission brief: objective, operating picture, cockpit roles, crew pairings and launch sequence.

  4. 04

    Fly the missions. Run the squadron.

    Crews launch in succession. A six-person team normally flies in three two-person crews; four- and five-person days use an adapted rotation while preserving a mission role for everyone.

    In the cockpit

    Two participants fly as one crew.

    Carrier launch, navigation, a changing threat picture and a final dogfight. Each mission lasts approximately thirty minutes and no two crews see exactly the same picture.

    In squadron operations

    The remaining team keeps the mission moving.

    They carry the squadron task, receive the returning crew, understand what has changed and hand the latest position to the next pair before launch.

  5. 05

    Debrief, learn and apply

    The full team reconstructs the missions in sequence. Paul then draws out the operating disciplines fighter pilots use in uncertainty and connects them to the decisions waiting back at work.
