SWANTON, Ohio — The Ohio Air National Guard's 180th Fighter Wing will take to the skies the next few nights for required night flight training.
Residents in our area can expect to hear takeoffs and landings of F-16 fighter jets from Oct. 25 to Oct. 28 until around 9:30 p.m. as pilots and maintenance personnel train for overall readiness.
Training flights normally take place during daylight hours, but F-16 pilots and maintenance personnel are required to conduct night operations as part of their overall readiness training.
The 180th thanks residents of Ohio and Michigan for their continued support as they continue to train in support of their mission.
