  • This is the most exciting flight I've been on this year! I was flying inside two of the four Saudi commercial airliners that participated in the Saudi 91st National Day Airshow 2021.
    The four Saudi Airliners involved in the formation are:
    Saudia B787-9 (Call sign: Falcon 1),
    Saudia B777-300/ER in Retro Livery (Call sign: Falcon 2),
    Flyadeal A320neo (Call sign: Falcon 3),
    Flynas A320 (Call sign: Falcon 4).
    On day 1 of the rehearsal, I flew inside a Saudia B777-300/ER Retro 75th anniversary special livery (registration HZ-AK28). The pilots explained the special flying procedure of the formation. The 4 airliners were flying with just 200 feet separation, which requires precision planning and discipline.
    On day 2 I flew inside a Flyadeal new A320neo, to film the other formation aircraft. I was treated to some amazing and incredible air-to-air flying footage of Saudia B777 and B787.
    The 91st Saudi National Day AirShow was held in Jeddah on 20th Sept, Riyadh on 23rd Sept and Damman on 25th Sept.

    I was in Saudi Arabia during 1981 to 1986, I flew all over KSA. Saudia is an Good Airlines indeed. From Dahran to Jeddah and to Khamis Mushait and Riyadh to Al Hofuf. And back again to Tabuk and to Mecca and Medina.

    OMG! it just shows that it doesn't matter if you are military or commercial pilot. the skills that they both share in flying formation is beyond words. I salute all of the pilots out there. Doesn't matter what country you are from and what airline you fly for. Thank you for keeping the skies safe.

    Having some experience in the warbirds community, as a non-pilot, I know the challenges of complex formation flying. In smaller more maneuverable warbirds, station keeping is manageable in a most formations, but damn with aircraft of these sizes and "relative" maneuverability that is an added challenge.
